Jekyll introduction

Transform your plain text into static websites and blogs…

Jekyll takes plain text files plus template files and spits out a functional website, with no need for a database. This makes it simple, fast, secure and scalable.

• Edit your content in a text editor – a great way to focus on the content, not the technology
• Save your changes and Jekyll automatically builds your website
• Preview locally in your browser
• Then push to a webserver for the world to view

> This is a blockquote

* Lists are 
* easy too
