Ask HN: Blogging with Jekyll
Hello,
I plan to move my website from Wordpress to Jekyll and I wonder if there is any good book about using Jekyll for blogging.
I think Jekyll will give me more control over my content and it will also be a good opportunity to learn some Ruby. I would appreciate any advices or experiences about using Jekyll for blogging.
- g3orge 15y agoI used Jekyll. It's static content machine and I loved it. I now use nanoc. It's the same principle but I think it's better. I don't think that there are any books about Jekyll, but you can google around for basic tutorials.

- honzacz 15y agoThe Jekyll wiki at github and the example pages there provide quite a lot of useful examples including plugins such as SASS and HAML compilers, category archives or comments (using Disqus) If you want to tinker with Jekyll more, I would recommend looking into Octopress, which is a blogging framework based on Jekyll, that offers a lot of advanced features and plugins not available in plain Jekyll...

- mmisu 15y agoNot a big fan of Disqus here, same goes for using Facebook comments. Thanks for the Octopress suggestion.
