Hello World!!!

Hello World: Like the starting program in every language, this is my first article in my site using Jekyll.

I have been very exicited to host my site in Github Pages since long. I started working on it about 6 months ago but left it in between( my nature ). I do not know the exact reason but maybe my nature of jumping on and off a particular thing. I have this habit of not concentrating on a single work for a long time. Even this time I was on/off this project since last 2 weeks.

I have again started working with Github Pages and Jekyll. But the problem was I could not configure it that easily like the last time. Also I had lack of knowledge on this. So I spent 1 week on just documentation. It was amazing to just going through what you have done before in theory.

But the real trouble begin when I started setting up. I just kept getting error on setup only. The only reason I was stuck was that I was trying to set it up locally first. I had lower version of “ruby” then required. So I had to update ruby and all its gem. Anothe issue was working with the theme. First I was so confused about which theme to pick. I never knew there are so many themes on Jekyll and even premium themes. So finally I settled on this theme: PortfolioYOU The next trouble I got head on was the gh-pages gem. It didn’t support jekyll 4.0.0 which was the default gem on inital setup of jekyll new site.

Anyways after going through all those errors, bugs and lack of knowlege, I started customization and data entry on my newly ready site. As I am writing this, I am still working on local setup.

I just somehow feel relieved just to pushing it to master branch(literally like moving site to live). It’s just a new experience of making it live

I hope to document my coding and bug-fixing troubles and stories on these articles.

Untill then, May the Force be with you!!!!
