Quick-start guide

For the impatient, here’s how to get a boilerplate Jekyll site up and running.

~ $ gem install jekyll
~ $ jekyll new myblog
~ $ cd myblog
~/myblog $ jekyll serve
# => Now browse to http://localhost:4000

That’s nothing, though. The real magic happens when you start creating blog posts, using the front-matter to control templates and layouts, and taking advantage of all the awesome configuration options Jekyll makes available.

If you’re running into problems, ensure you have all the requirements installed.
