Try this improved version of jekyll-now

Since jekyll-now is not being actively developed anymore, I've been working on a better, delicious and more improved version of jekyll-now for quite some time now. The theme is a fork of jekyll-now itself and it's called Reverie.

Here are some advantages of using Reverie over jekyll-now:

  • Active development
  • Fuzzy search across blog posts
  • Pagination of posts
  • Syntax highlighting using Pygments
  • Categorize posts out-of-the-box
  • RSS Feed
  • Built-in sitemap
  • Supports Pullquotes

You can check https://github.com/amitmerchant1990/reverie if you like.

As I said earlier, the theme is actively maintained as well with new features coming in on a regular basis so you might want to try it out! 😃

I just forked jekyll-now. Since the development stopped years ago, will this cause any problems in production? I just want to create a simple, private blog.

@mialikescoffee If you're concerned about the development of jekyll-now being stopped, use Reverie instead of jekyll-now.

Thanks @amitmerchant1990 !
What's the easiest/recommended way to move an existing Jekyll Now blog (hosted on github pages) over?
