First Post
Hello! This is my first blog post. In this same place I will talk about programming, technology and other cool things around this subject.
I used Jekyll to create this blog for some reasons:
-
Practical and easy, allowing me a high level of customization.
-
GitHub Pages, meaning I no longer need to worry about hosting plus some good advantages.
-
“Commit” your own posts is cool
-
A new challenge
The part I most like during the creation of the blog was building a bilingual structure for the whole blog. There are some plugins that I believe that can handle the job, but that was not my intention. I found some blog posts that I used as a base. In the end I created a structure like this:
The portuguese posts remained inside _posts
. The different layout files are used to handle the differences between pages.
This way I can maintain all that is english inside the EN
category.
This is the end for now. Soon enough I will bring more interesting posts (for real).
Some links that will help you learn more about Jekyll and a bilingual blog process:
