Key Features
- Jekyll Now foundation — The blog runs on Jekyll Now, a widely used starter that converts Markdown and Liquid templates into static HTML pages, requiring no database or server-side processing.
- Dual licensing — All blog posts are licensed under CC-BY-NC 4.0, permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution, while the underlying Jekyll Now code is MIT licensed, allowing free reuse of the template code.
- Official Quaver updates — Posts document the development of a multiplayer rhythm game, including gameplay, online features, and community feedback, giving players direct insight into the roadmap.
- Community connection — The README links to the Quaver Discord server and uses a Discord widget badge, making it easy for readers to join discussions.
- Clear post structure — Following Jekyll conventions, each post lives as a Markdown file in
_posts/with front matter, ready for the existing layout and styling system.
Who is it for?
- Quaver players and fans — They can follow the official blog to stay informed about updates, new features, and community events directly from the development team.
- Game developers — The repository serves as a working example of a Jekyll Now blog configured for a game project, including how to separate content licenses from code licenses.
- Jekyll users — Developers new to Jekyll can study this repository to see how a real project organizes posts, uses the
_postsfolder, and deploys a static blog.
