Blog
My personal blog. Design heavily inspired by Dustin Tran's blog
Workflow
Here's my workflow for writing and submitting blog posts.
- Dump thoughts into a markdown file, in
_drafts/. Or edit the many files already inside_drafts/. Preview (and generate) the static site from a local server.
jekyll serve --drafts- When complete, rename and move the file to
_posts/. - Re-build the site.
jekyll build --destination ../blog- Copy generated blog into VPS.
s3cmd put --recursive blog s3://ancasey.com/Maintenance
To keep the theme up to date, I track the theme's original repo on
the type-theme branch. Add to remote the original repo,
git remote add theme git@github.com:rohanchandra/type-theme.git
Whenever you want to update, simply run
git checkout type-theme
git pull theme master
You can compare type-theme to master and possibly merge in any
changes. Keeping the theme up-to-date on a separate branch avoids
treating the repo as a fork: this repo does more than just style
things and is thus not appropriate as a fork.
