Getting Started with My Notes Site

Today I set up this notes site using GitHub Pages and Jekyll. Here’s how it works:

How to Add Notes

1. Create a new Markdown file in the notes/ folder (e.g. notes/2026-03-19.md)

2. Add a front matter block at the top: yaml --- layout: page title: "Your Note Title" date: YYYY-MM-DD --- 3. Write your note in Markdown below the front matter 4. Commit the file — GitHub Pages will automatically rebuild the site

                 ## Tips
   
                 - Link to notes from `index.md` to make them discoverable
                 - Use headers (`#`, `##`, `###`) to organize content
                 - Code blocks use triple backticks: ` ``` `
                 - The site lives at [https://lowerlee.github.io](https://lowerlee.github.io)
