First post!!!
It has been a really, really looooong time since I wrote anything in a blog. Last I wrote on I, Me and Myself was sometime around November of 2015, and my other blog was even older. Life got busier and I had to take a step back from everything else.
Finally, some of my worries are now over, and I have a little bit of free time to get some things done outside of job and family life. So, I thought, why not start blogging again? Sure, no oneβs gonna read it, but that doesnβt mean I canβt work on my technical writing skills.
I didnβt want to go back to blogger or wordpress, since those sites were really heavy, and I didnβt want to get inside huge clumsy dashboards to get simple things done. I was looking for a simpler blogging media. So, I started asking around, and my good friend Mishuk suggested that I should look into GitHub pages and Jekyll. Apparently, static site generation is a big thing these days in the web world (which I barely know anything about).
And guess what, people werenβt joking when they said using Jekyll would be easier. I spent a few hours and this is the site I came up with. Best part is, I havenβt even gotten into all that sass jazz yet. I am still working on adding features and customizing the Minima
theme. However, I am quite familiar with markdown since I have to use that on a regular basis for writing documentations and project README
files. Publish a post just by pushing it into a GitHub repo? Hell yeah!!!
Things I need to add to this site:
- Pagination
- Tag Processing
- Add disqus comment
- And some actual articles(!)
Really hoping that I can keep it up this time.
