convert to jekyl

[wardi]

editing html is tiresome

I love Jekyll, I would totally be happy to pickup this issue. I am going to assign it to myself, as I will have some free time coming up.

@wardi I was looking at that deploying-with-cloudflare-pages and I don't have access to the cloud fare configuration, but could you help me confirm is suitably configured? I created a draft pull request #71 and it deployed to https://8-convert-to-jekyl.jsonlines.pages.dev but we would need to use the _site (here) folder instead.

the logs say "No build command specified" and "Uploaded 0 files", what changes need to be made on the cloudflare configuration?

Might be easier to fork this repo and set up a new free cloudflare pages site as a test.

[sp4ce]

Yes I can do that, but the changes we need to make on the cloudfare configuration are described here basically it seems it's in Set up builds and deployments and then put those values:

But I'll have a look at forking and configure it on my side as well if needed.

[sp4ce]

@wardi, yup I fixed the branch after testing on cloudfare, it's very simple configuration. Pasting it here

The pull request is still in early stages anyway and I will try some complete the basic scaffolding for jekyll. However we could also put it in place, with like no special processing (it copies the files into _site and then serve them) and then iteratively "jekyllized" the website later. What do you think?

[sp4ce]

@wardi Sorry I did not mean to close it and merge my PR, but I realized I had the wrong tracking branch on my local :/ I looked it up online on jsonlines.org and all seems good. Let me know if you want that I revert everything, or if I need to change something based on the PR above. Sorry again.

[wardi]

No worries. Site still seems to look correct.

Is the automated workflow set up so that changes in the .md files will be reflected?

[sp4ce]

Yes, the way I dit it is with two jobs, one that build, and one that push to gh-pages
