Jekyll is a static site generator that's perfect for GitHub hosted blogs. Jekyll Now makes it easier to create your Jekyll blog, by eliminating a lot of the up front setup. You don't need to touch the command line. You don't need to install/configure ruby, rvm/rbenv, ruby gems. You don't need to install runtime dependencies like markdown processors, Pygments, etc. If you're on Windows, this will make setting up Jekyll a lot easier. It's easy to try out, you can just delete your forked repository if you don't like it. In a few minutes you'll be set up with a minimal, responsive blog like the one below giving you more time to spend on writing epic blog posts! Enter your site name, description, avatar and many other options by editing the _config.yml file. You can easily turn on Google Analytics tracking, Disqus commenting and social icons here too. Command-line free fork-first workflow, using GitHub.com to create, customize and post to your blog.
