This is a blog built as a static site using Jekyll.
Content is divided into
- posts: short content, sometimes with custom illustration and page design
- projects: larger stand-alone pages
use of posts versus pages...
Jekyll-compose plugin provides easy creation of
- post
- page
- draft and publishing control shortcuts
- publish
- unpublish
There is always the standard way but why not run the shell script which provides
- title
- date
- layout
there is a _drafts folder which is not generated...
using markdown versus html
common information about posts may be: objective / motivation / intent commentary / implementation references / links
... and maybe have a way to include in the yaml front matter to be displayed automatically in the layout (?)
layout defaults to post but can be:
- page
- page-wrapped
- post
categories and tags...
you can use the front matter post_css and style
style over multiple lines with | for (plain scalar?)
the subsequent CSS must be indented or the parser will yield a YAML exception and fail to generate the page
