Using GitHub to directly publish Markdown files

GitHub now allows direct publishing of markdown files markdown files.

It really is as simple as 1,2,3 but for more control, it’s useful to know that the process still uses jekyll with the primer theme.

It’s possible to choose other themes, but for a small tweak on the default theme it’s possible to make changes. For this site I edited the default.html to show an image instead of a text title. The changes can be seen in these lines.
