Hugo is another popular static site generator that runs faster than Jekyll. Recently, I migrated my blog from Github Page + Jekyll Now to Cloudflare Pages + Hugo.

Jekyll Gist is a plugin to embed a gist into the static pages (Jekyll-Gist Repository).

It is enabled at the backend of GitHub Page by default, and can be used as a liquid tag as follows:

{% gist 46b4401513cdbd8b2390172344157b7a UnionFind.cpp %}

The long hash code can be found in the URL of a specific gist repo. The Jekyll backend would render it to be a JavaScript tag. In addition, gist-it.appspot.com is a website providing JavaScript to embed files from a public github repository like a gist.

Jekyll is a static site generator that’s perfect for GitHub hosted blogs (Jekyll Repository).

Jekyll Now makes it easier to create your Jekyll blog, by eliminating a lot of the up front setup.
