I've created a more detailed walkthrough, Build A Blog With Jekyll And GitHub Pages over at the Smashing Magazine website. Check it out if you'd like a more detailed walkthrough and some background on Jekyll. 🤘

It covers:

• A more detailed walkthrough of setting up your Jekyll blog
• Common issues that you might encounter while using Jekyll
• Importing from Wordpress, using your own domain name, and blogging in your favorite editor
• Theming in Jekyll, with Liquid templating examples
• A quick look at Jekyll 2.0’s new features, including Sass/Coffeescript support and Collections

✓ Command-line free fork-first workflow, using GitHub.com to create, customize and post to your blog
✓ Fully responsive and mobile optimized base theme (Theme Demo)
✓ Sass/Coffeescript support using Jekyll 2.0
✓ Free hosting on your GitHub Pages user site
✓ Markdown blogging
✓ Syntax highlighting
✓ Disqus commenting
✓ Google Analytics integration
✓ SVG social icons for your footer
✓ 3 http requests, including your avatar

✘ No installing dependencies ✘ No need to set up local development
✘ No configuring plugins
✘ No need to spend time on theming
✘ More time to code other things ... wait ✓!

Open an Issue and let's chat!

You can use the Quick Start workflow with other themes that are set up to be forked too! Here are some of my favorites:
