That's the beauty of a static site generator -- github just expects valid HMTL to be generated and pushed to a specific branch. Github has no more Jekyll support than it has support for Hugo or a custom static site generator written in bash.
I host my hugo-based blog with github pages.
- fossuser 6y agoAh ok - I think I understand. Github does have special Jekyll support, but you just generate the hugo static files locally and only push those up to where Github expects them to be? I think with Jekyll Github will re-generate the static files for you and works with the RSS plugin automatically. Good to know though - might be worth checking out Hugo, thanks!
- nickysielicki 6y agoHuh, I didn't know that Github had that sort of integration. I'm surprised that they're willing to run arbitrary ruby like that.
