Youll 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:
{% highlight ruby %}
def print_hi(name)
puts "Hi, #{name}"
end
print_hi('Tom')
#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to STDOUT.
{% endhighlight %}
Check out the [Jekyll docs][jekyll-docs] for more info on how to get the most out of Jekyll. File all bugs/feature requests at [Jekylls GitHub repo][jekyll-gh]. If you have questions, you can ask them on [Jekyll Talk][jekyll-talk].

Just a test post. This is the first, of a new blog that is powered by **Jekyll**
After many years of using [Wordpress](http://wordpress.org), I've switched to using [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) with the [Minimal-Mistakes](https://mmistakes.github.io/minimal-mistakes/) theme.
<h1>{{ "Hello World!" | downcase }}</h1>
Its a self hosted blog, rather than using [Github Pages](https://pages.github.com) because its not really a programming blog, so it felt a bit cheeky to use it. Plus its always "fun" to setup stuff, learning about using a *post-receive* hook to build the site after making a change to the blog's git repo.
The site is currently being served by [Caddy](http://caddyserver.com) rather than [NGINX](https://www.nginx.com/) but that might change in the future.
Why the changes? Well my dedicated server at [Online.net](https://www.online.net/en) died a number of months ago, and I never got around to properly restoring it to how it was. This is me finally doing that, and making some other changes at the same time.
I know that no-one really reads my blog, I post so infrequently and its not exactly riviting content, but getting the site up and running again, plus getting my wiki back up was bugging me :)
As an aside I lost a little data, basically my wiki which had a lot of server config stuff, because the default install of Dokuwiki puts the data off in */var/lib/dokuwiki/data* and when I was backing up the main dokuwiki directory I apparently didn't have the setting to follow symlinks on.
