Setup

Some tips should you desire your own Jekyll blog:

1. Pick an uncommon username (check that it’s available at GitHub and Twitter for example)
2. Create email account
3. Set up GitHub account
   1. create GitHub account
   2. verify email
   3. set up GitHub env on your computer, e.g. https://gorails.com/setup/ubuntu/14.04#git
4. Set up Twitter account
   1. create Twitter account
   2. verify email
5. Install Ruby, e.g. https://gorails.com/setup/ubuntu/14.04#ruby
6. Install Jekyll, see http://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation/
   1. gem install bundler
   2. bundle install
7. For Font-Awesome, the BootstrapCDN solution works, but hinders testing changes without Internet Using font-awesome-sass doesn’t work as the fonts dir is “font-awesome/…” and you cannot change that to “../fonts”. Interestingly, the minified css file does have the right directory, so:
   1. download Font-Awesome and extract the archive
   2. mv the fonts dir to the Jekyll site root directory
   3. add this above the css/main.css link tag in _includes/head.html: <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”{{ “/css/font-awesome.min.css” | prepend: site.baseurl }}”>
   4. add markup like this to your pages: <span class=”fa fa-camera-retro”></span>
8. For CoffeeScript, follow these instructions: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/assets/ In addition, do:
   1. mkdir js
   2. add .coffee files in js dir
