Jekyll is a tool for transforming your plain text into static websites and
|
|
blogs. It is simple, static, and blog-aware. Jekyll uses the
|
|
[Liquid](http://docs.shopify.com/themes/liquid-basics) templating
|
|
language and has builtin [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/)
|
|
and [Textile](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textile_(markup_language)) support.
|
|
|
|
It also ties in nicely to [Github Pages](https://pages.github.com/).
