Been trying to figure out how to make a Jekyll blog with 0 coding experience and am just about to rage-quit. Is there anything out there for us non-coders that is NOT Wix/SS etc for simple blogging??

Use ChatGPT and talk to it about what you are trying to do. Then give it any errors you encounter.

Also, check out Ghost: https://ghost.org

Jekyll is hard mode for starting a blog. I have tried tons of them including rolling my own. I always end up back at self-hosted Wordpress. That is my recommendation, it is reasonably easy with tons of how-tos. And it is easy for publishing.

Any success ? jekyll blog nostr login?

No, failed miserably with Jekyll. Ended up using Ghost, which is okay but would prefer something else if you know of anything

feel - jekyll is lost - all r 5 to 10yr old themes

https://astro-minimal.netlify.app/about/ trying this now Nodejs based up n running in mins

you can modify the themes if you know css and html for defining layouts

ah ok thanks

also found https://jamstackthemes.dev/

seems can pick what like - choose the backend.

almost wasted 8hrs in jekyll but learn a but of ruby thats all

Lol same here.

Nice! I'll check it out!

Have you heard of write.as? Might be easier and more user-friendly than OG Jekyll.

I have not!! I'll look into it!! Thanks for the rec

My pleasure. If that doesn't do it for you, hit me up and I'll try to find something else for you. Cheers.
