The Ottawa Android website and blog.
If you are only interested in creating content, then this is the only section you
really need to read. You can ignore the archived_posts folder from the old
blog.
Posts are inside the _posts folder. To create a new post, simply
create a new file in that folder following the same naming convention as the other
posts. Make sure to include the proper metadata at the top of the file.
To keep things organized, we group all posts for a given year in the same sub folder.
The internal structure of the _posts directory does not determine the final url.
The final url (and publishing date) is based on the filename for the post.
Non underscore folders are browsable by the web. This means that for the contact
page, the associated page file will be inside the contact folder in a file called
index.md.
To run a local copy of the site while developing, execute jekyll server --watch
in the project root directory.
You can have sass watch for file changes when working on the CSS by executing
sass --watch css/style.scss:css/style.css --style compressed in another terminal.
It will automatically recomple/minify the CSS as you make changes and save the files.
