How to write posts

To add new post, add a file in the _posts directory that follows the naming convention YYYY-MM-DD-name-of-post.md and includes the necessary YAML front matter:

---
headline: "First Post Demo"
excerpt: "First Post Excerpt"
categories:
- Web
tags:
- Jekyll
- Starter Kit
---

How to create pages

Create new pages in the root directory (or pretty much any subdirectory). The filename will form part of the URL.

Pages will need front matter as well, for example:

—
layout: default
title: “Blog”
meta_description: “Default Blog Meta Description”
permalink: blog/index.html
current_nav: blog
—

How to deploy

This is automatically ready to deploy, so long as the gulp server has been running during development.

Built code lives in the _site directory.
