How was this site created ?

This is a post detailing how this site was initially created.

The following tech stack was used:

AWS S3 account hosted with Jekyll building a static site using the “Massively” theme.

• See How to install Jekyll. It’s not too hard.

• Using the repo here, save it to any folder you want. Open a terminal window or a command line and cd to that location. Then enter: bundle exec jekyll serve. You can now access your new Jekyll site from http://127.0.0.1:4000/. Have fun exploring your new site! Modify the template to your suite your needs.

• GoDaddy to register a domain prior.

• An AWS tutorial to copy content from local PC into the S3 bucket created for the site and setup correctly so that hooks into GoDaddy lookup.

• Microsoft Onenote along the way to capture as much detail as I would like to remember going forward.

ToDo:

• Figure out how to hook in email.
• What is this disqus thing - looks like a means to capture comments…to investigate further.
