to get working for the first time:

clone repo
open a terminal in the repo folder (in vscode: open folder > sumo-website > terminal > new terminal)
bundle install (installs jekyll, webrick and all the required ruby gems)

to start editing, bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload -- a message should print saying server address: http://127.0.0.1:4000 or another address. hold ctrl and click on it to open in a browser.
every commit refreshes the webpage on github pages using the .yml workflow in the .github/workflows folder. allow for one minute after commiting for changes to be reflected. check the actions tab if it fails.

all blog posts sit in the _posts folder. add a new file using the format <yyyy>-<mm>-<dd>-<title>.md, for example 2022-01-01-happy-new-year.md.
inside every blog post, fill out the front matter (the text in between the dashed lines):

---
layout: post
title: New Website!
author: rydrako
---

most times only title and author need to be edited.
the text inside every blog post uses markdown formatting, please check the markdown cheat sheet for more info.
