Dewald's Workbench

A small Jekyll blog for notes on learning, building, and figuring things out. It is designed to publish on GitHub Pages from this repository.

Writing a post

Create a Markdown file in _posts/ named YYYY-MM-DD-short-title.md. Add front matter at the top:

---
layout: post
title: "A useful title"
date: 2026-10-21 12:00:00 +0200
categories: [workbench]
tags: [daisywheel]
---

Write the post below the second ---. Push it to main and GitHub Actions will build and publish the site.

Publishing setup

1. Create a public GitHub repository named Dewopalis.github.io and push this project to its main branch.
2. In the repository, open Settings → Pages and select GitHub Actions as the build and deployment source.
3. The workflow in .github/workflows/pages.yml will publish the site at https://dewopalis.github.io.

The first deployment can take a few minutes. A custom domain is optional and would need to be purchased separately.
