Why Simblog

After searching a lot, I found no good hosted, free, markdown-based blogging platform. Ghost is the closest to programmer friendly blogging platform but the hosted solution is too expensive for an enthusiast blogger. Medium is also a good contender but there is not good code snippet support, creating gist for everything is very frustrating at times. I found that setting up Jekyll on Github pages is the closest to the solution I was trying to find. The only problem is the overhead of setting it up is too much. Also, changing theme is a massive project in itself sometimes.

So, Simblog aims to make this process as easy as possible. Its not only code but also a tutorial on how you can blog as easy as possible, using the tools you love.
