Jekyll’s step-by-step tutorial. The goal of this tutorial is to take you from having some front end web development experience to building your first Jekyll site from scratch — not relying on the default gem-based theme.

Jekyll is a static site generator. You give it text written in your favorite markup language and it uses layouts to create a static website. You can tweak how you want the site URLs to look like, what data gets displayed on the site, and more.
Setup
Requirements
Jekyll on Ubuntu
Install the required dependencies:
sudo apt install ruby-full build-essential zlib1g-dev
Set up a gem installation directory for your user account, so add environment variables to your ~/.bashrc file to configure the gem installation path.
$ echo '# Install Ruby Gems to ~/gems' >> ~/.bashrc
$ echo 'export GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems"' >> ~/.bashrc
$ echo 'export PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
$ source ~/.bashrc
Finally, install Jekyll:
gem install jekyll bundler
Project setup
jekyll new your-project-name
Finally, in your project directory, build the site and make it available on a local server.
bundle exec jekyll serve
After that, your project is running on http://127.0.0.1:4000/
