# Jekyll Topics: [[Static site generator]], [[Web development]] [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) is a static site generator. I use it for almost all my websites because they're not particularly dynamic. ## Subtopics - ## Issue: No Gemfile after site creation When you create a new website using `jekyll new mysite --blank`, it does not create a `Gemfile`. You can generate it like this: ``` bundle init bundle add jekyll ``` ## Bookmarks - [Jekyll on Rails](https://www.sitepoint.com/jekyll-rails/) - [Password Protect your Jekyll site on Netlify](https://www.tachyonstemplates.com/2020/jekyll-netlify-password/) - [Adding a Microblog to Jekyll - DEV Community](https://dev.to/maxlmator/adding-a-microblog-to-jekyll-39cp) ## Related topics - [[Bridgetown]]
