About how it was built
This digital garden is built using the static site generator Jekyll, transforming text written in Markdown to a static website. This template incorporates Obsidian in the workflow:
- Develop and organize content in Obsidian.
- Host on Github.
- Deploy on Netlify.
Megumi Tanaka’s template, which is based on Maxime Vaillancourt’s template, was modified by me in 2022. To install the Jekyll template, I followed these steps, with a few modifications:
- Create new repository from the Github Template
- Customize
_config.yml
Sign up for DeployHQ- Connect Github repository to
DeployHQNetlify - Add server’s FTP or SSH information
- Configure Jekyll Build Commands on
DeployHQNetlifyand turnvendor
caching on - Deploy and setup up automatic deployment.
Then, to develop and organize all entries in Obsidian, I followed these steps, with the addition of a staging area in the _notes
directory.
