As it turns out, editing text files on GitHub is far from the best way to create a website. Fortunately, Tanuj has been walking me through some basic Git commands, as well as introducing me to Sublime Text for the editing of my posts :)

Following this, I’m hoping to figure out how to locally develop the site so I don’t have to tether my phone to my laptop for consistent connection…

Thu 2017-11-23 15:13 Ruby is being a total pain and can’t find any of its dependencies. I’ve found a workaround that allows me to view the site locally, but all of the Jekyll gems are glitching out.

Thu 2017-11-23 17:12 The one I hoped would be my saving grace, Thomas Jean Lynch, has confirmed that they do not use Ruby and cannot offer me any assistance. I continue to bob along in the ocean, aimlessly and helplessly.

Thu 2017-12-14 17:27 I’ve discovered that I can use the -a parameter rather than adding everything to the commit with a separate command! The next order of business is going to be figuring out how to push changes from my phone, since I’ll be travelling without my laptop over the break.
