  2. Add metadata to the YAML front matter ('author' should correspond to a key in _config.yml):
author: marius-ducea
categories: [Install, Setup, etc]
published: false # working draft, will not be published on generate
  1. Write content
  2. Generate & Preview
rake generate && rake preview # Watches and mounts a webserver at http://0.0.0.0:4000
