jekyll-action

A GitHub Action to build and Jekyll sites for deployment.

This action doesn't publish the site anywhere, later steps are required to publish the site anywhere. This action will install Gems from a Gemfile, which can be cached.

Usage

Use the Aizistral-Studios/jekyll-action action in your workflow file. The site will be output to _site

Use the actions/cache action in the workflow as well, to shorten build times and decrease load on GitHub's servers
