1. Install Jekyll and plug-ins in one fell swoop. gem install github-pages This mirrors the plug-ins used by GitHub Pages on your local machine including Jekyll, Sass, etc.
2. Clone down your fork git clone [email protected]:yourusername/yourusername.github.io.git
3. Serve the site and watch for markup/sass changes jekyll serve
4. View your website at http://127.0.0.1:4000/
5. Commit any changes and push everything to the master branch of your GitHub user repository. GitHub Pages will then rebuild and serve your website.

I've created a more detailed walkthrough, Build A Blog With Jekyll And GitHub Pages over at the Smashing Magazine website. Check it out if you'd like a more detailed walkthrough and some background on Jekyll. 🤘

You can use the Quick Start workflow with other themes that are set up to be forked too! Here are some of my favorites:
