www.itrocks.com 建站记录

After hours of work on December 3, 2017, my blog is finally online! Quite excited!

I will be recording my progress here, and enjoying sharing my learning with everyone.

Human knowledge belongs to the whole world.

I searched for the easiest way to do it, and here are the 3 steps:

1) Create a Jekyll powered website by Forking A Starting Point on http://www.github.com/barryclark/jekyll-now, and get a domain: rock154.github.io; Host it on my GitHub account, and use my own domain www.itrocks.pro (purchased in step 2).

2) Purchased a domain “ITrocks.pro” from “wanwang.aliyun.com”, which is the biggest supplier as it claims. Set DNS: set CNAME record value is "rock154.github.io", so that my domin will point to it. (右上控制台 - 左下域名与网站 - 云解析DNS)

Remark: DNS(Domain Name System, 域名系统)，万维网上作为域名和IP地址相互映射的一个分布式数据库，能够使用户更方便的访问互联网，而不用去记住能够被机器直接读取的IP数串。通过域名，最终得到该域名对应的IP地址的过程叫做域名解析（或主机名解析）。但浏览器在域名解析前是先查询本机上的hosts 文件的，如果有记录则不再被DNS 解析了。hosts 文件位置：C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

3) Customize the Website by updating the variables in _config.yml file and make new post on Github desktop, then publish it.
