You’ll find this post in your

directory. Go ahead and edit it and re-build the site to see your changes. You can rebuild the site in many different ways, but the most common way is to run , which launches a web server and auto-regenerates your site when a file is updated.

To add new posts, simply add a file in the

directory that follows the convention and includes the necessary front matter. Take a look at the source for this post to get an idea about how it works.

Jekyll also offers powerful support for code snippets:

1def print_hi(name)
2  puts "Hi, #{name}"
3end
4print_hi('Tom')
5#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to STDOUT.

1package main
2
3import (
4   "fmt"
5)
6
7// This is a comment!
8const theImportantValue = "this is a string"
9
10type Foo struct {
11    X int    `json:"-"`
12    Y string `json:"y"`
13    Z bool   `json:"z"`
14}
15
16func main() {
17    fmt.Printf("This is a test of %d.", 6)
18}
