+You’ll find this post in your `_posts` directory. Go ahead and edit it and re-build the site to see your changes. You can rebuild the site in many different ways, but the most common way is to run `jekyll serve`, which launches a web server and auto-regenerates your site when a file is updated.
+
+Jekyll requires blog post files to be named according to the following format:
+
+`YEAR-MONTH-DAY-title.MARKUP`
+
+Where `YEAR` is a four-digit number, `MONTH` and `DAY` are both two-digit numbers, and `MARKUP` is the file extension representing the format used in the file. After that, include the necessary front matter. Take a look at the source for this post to get an idea about how it works.
+
+Jekyll also offers powerful support for code snippets:
+
+{% highlight ruby %}
+def print_hi(name)
+ puts "Hi, #{name}"
+end
+print_hi('Tom')
+#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to STDOUT.
+{% endhighlight %}
+
