blog

This repository contains a lightweight Jekyll blog designed to publish on GitHub Pages.

Expected URL

Because this repository should be named blog, the site will publish at:

https://absieee.github.io/blog/

If the repository is still named something else on GitHub, rename it in the repository settings so the URL and _config.yml stay aligned.

How to write a new post

1. Create a new Markdown file in _posts/
2. Name it like YYYY-MM-DD-title-goes-here.md
3. Add front matter at the top:

---
title: My new note
date: 2026-04-04 18:30:00 +0100
categories: [product]
summary: One-line summary for the homepage.
---

4. Write the post in Markdown below that block
5. Commit and push to main

Good categories to start with

• product
• engineering
• notes

Local preview

If you want to run the site locally later:

1. Install Ruby and Bundler
2. Run bundle install
3. Run bundle exec jekyll serve

Deployment

This repo includes a GitHub Actions workflow that builds and deploys the site to GitHub Pages on every push to main.
