+Blogging
+
+- Blog page will contain list of posts and these posts are in `_posts`. for instance one post can be 
+  `2018-08-20-bananas.md`
+```md

+
+A banana is an edible fruit – botanically a berry – produced by several
+kinds of large herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Musa.
+
+In some countries, bananas used for cooking may be called "plantains",
+distinguishing them from dessert bananas. The fruit is variable in size,
+color, and firmness, but is usually elongated and curved, with soft
+flesh rich in starch covered with a rind, which may be green, yellow,
+red, purple, or brown when ripe.
+```
+- Creating layout for the post. at `_layouts/post.html`
+```html
+---
+layout: default
+---
+<h1>{{ page.title }}</h1>
+<p>{{ page.date | date_to_string }} - {{ page.author }}</p>
+
+{{ content }}
+```
+`date_to_string` filter, this formats a date into a nicer format
+- listing posts : posts will be available at `site.posts`. at `/blog.html`
+	 ```html
+	---
+	layout: default
+	title: Blog
+	---
+
+	<h1> Latest Posts </h1>
+
+	<ul>
+		{% for post in site.posts %}
+		<li>
+			<h2> <a href="{{post.url}}"> {{post.title}} </a> </h2>
+			{{post.excerpt}}
+		</li>
+		{% endfor %}
+	</ul>
+	```
+	There’s a few things to note with this code:
+	- `post.url` is automatically set by Jekyll to the output path of the post
+	- `post.title` is pulled from the post filename and can be overridden by setting title in front matter
+	- `post.excerpt` is the first paragraph of content by default. excerpt literally means short piece taken from something.

+An apple is a sweet, edible fruit produced by an apple tree.
+
+Apple trees are cultivated worldwide, and are the most widely grown
+species in the genus Malus. The tree originated in Central Asia, where
+its wild ancestor, Malus sieversii, is still found today. Apples have
+been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe, and were brought
+to North America by European colonists.
