Hello Earth’s Children, This time we will continue to discuss about page builders. But for this time we will use a new programming language, Ruby. Maybe this is the first time we’re discussing about Ruby on our platform… So it’s going to be awesome..

Jekyll is a static site generator. It takes text written in your favorite markup language and uses layouts to create a static website. You can tweak the site’s look and feel, URLs, the data displayed on the page, and more.

Jekyll

First we need install Ruby, after that we proceed to Jekyll.

you can read it on here to install ruby ​​on windows.. Ruby version 2.5.0 and above is needed. Now install Jekyll :

gem install bundler
bundle install

  • Jekyll uses an older templating language to render your website called Liquid.
  • Conceptually, Jekyll is “minimal client-side JavaScript” approach to web development.
  • Jekyll achieves this by pushing you to avoid JavaScript entirely. Jekyll sites are often written with little to no JavaScript at all, and instead promote server-side HTML rendering. This becomes an issue when you do need client-side JavaScript. It is up to you to create your own build pipeline for Jekyll. This can be time-consuming and forces you to set up bundling, minification, and other optimizations yourself.

Okay.. we finish.. for the full instruction you can visit here … cyaa.
