Welcome to Jekyll

You’ll find this post in your _posts directory. Go ahead and edit it and re-build the site to see your changes. You can rebuild the site in many different ways, but the most common way is to run jekyll serve, which launches a web server and auto-regenerates your site when a file is updated.

To add new posts, simply add a file in the _posts directory that follows the convention YYYY-MM-DD-name-of-post.ext and includes the necessary front matter. Take a look at the source for this post to get an idea about how it works.

Jekyll also offers powerful support for code snippets:

def print_hi(name)
  puts "Hi, #{name}"
end
print_hi('Tom')
#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to STDOUT.

Check out the Jekyll docs for more info on how to get the most out of Jekyll. File all bugs/feature requests at Jekyll’s GitHub repo. If you have questions, you can ask them on Jekyll Talk.

Blockquotes

Single line

My mom always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.

Multiline

What do you get when you cross an insomniac, an unwilling agnostic and a dyslexic?

You get someone who stays up all night torturing himself mentally over the question of whether or not there’s a dog.

Code

Source code can be included by fencing the code with three backticks. Syntax highlighting works automatically when specifying the language after the backticks.

```javascript
function foo () {
    return "bar";
}
```

This would be rendered as:

function foo () {
    return "bar";
}

MathJax

You can enable MathJax by setting mathjax: true on a page or globally in the _config.yml. Some examples:

Euler’s formula relates the complex exponential function to the trigonometric functions.

\[e^{i\theta}=\cos(\theta)+i\sin(\theta)\]

The Euler-Lagrange differential equation is the fundamental equation of calculus of variations.

\[\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t} \left ( \frac{\partial L}{\partial \dot{q}} \right ) = \frac{\partial L}{\partial q}\]

The Schrödinger equation describes how the quantum state of a quantum system changes with time.

\[i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t} \Psi(\mathbf{r},t) = \left [ \frac{-\hbar^2}{2\mu}\nabla^2 + V(\mathbf{r},t)\right ] \Psi(\mathbf{r},t)\]

Code

Embed code by putting {% highlight language %} {% endhighlight %} blocks around it. Adding the parameter linenos will show source lines besides the code.

static void asyncEnabled(Dict* args, void* vAdmin, String* txid, struct Allocator* requestAlloc)
{
    struct Admin* admin = Identity_check((struct Admin*) vAdmin);
    int64_t enabled = admin->asyncEnabled;
    Dict d = Dict_CONST(String_CONST("asyncEnabled"), Int_OBJ(enabled), NULL);
    Admin_sendMessage(&d, txid, admin);
}

Gists

With the jekyll-gist plugin, which is preinstalled on Github Pages, you can embed gists simply by using the gist command:

Images

Upload an image to the assets folder and embed it with ![title](/assets/name.jpg)). Keep in mind that the path needs to be adjusted if Jekyll is run inside a subfolder.

A wrapper div with the class large can be used to increase the width of an image or iframe.

Embedded content

You can also embed a lot of stuff, for example from YouTube, using the embed.html include.
