I've been messing around with Jekyll hosting this past month and I finally have something to show for it.
Essentially, I wanted a way to host Jekyll (and hopefully other static web frameworks) on something other than the Microsoft owned GitHub.
It turns out that by linking together some open source software it's relatively easy to put together something workable. Also, HTML has come a long way since I started doing this. So much stuff just works out of the box now, so I don't even need a complicated back end.
