How I setup this blog
Would you like to setup a blog similar to this?
The setup for this is really simple, all that is needed is:
- A code editor
- A domain (if you’d like the URL to be customized)
- GitHub This project is completely free, with an optional cost for the domain.
- Create a GitHub account
Github is a free website for viewing and publishing code. They offer free static web hosting, which will be used for your website. - Navigate to https://github.com/cotes2020/chirpy-starter
- Click on Use this template
- This will create a GIT repo on GitHub who will host your website.
- Edit the config file located at the root of the repository. The options are self explanatory.
- Create some posts in the
_postsfolder.
Use markdown formatting.
Post titles must be formatted as such:YYYY-MM-DD-title-here
Post your blogs in the comments, I’d love to see them.
Thank you for reading ;)
