Hello. This is me exploring Jekyll as a blog platform.

I like that everything is a text file.

I like that it picks up files in the _posts folder automatically.

I like that when hosting on Github there is nothing to run - it just all works magically.

I like that you can write posts as either .md files or .html. Or embed bits of html in the markdown, as I’m doing here.

I like that you can include javascript canvas elements:

Your browser does not support the HTML5 canvas tag.

I like that it knows about code syntax highlighting:

#include <cstdlib>

int main()
{
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
