On a whim, I created this website over 4 years ago. I’m glad I did create it. In last 5 years, I’ve learnt so much on Ruby, Rails, JavaScript, Golang. I want to share what I have learnt. One might think that - how nice, Pranav’s sharing. But this is for my own sake. The more I write, the more I can recollect and formalize the knowladge.

So, here it is, the first article after a long time!

A long time ago, not too far away …

I built this website on github pages. You can build one too, it’s pretty easy, follow Github Pages. But it was outdated with dependency vulnerabilities (see below). So I started to upgrade it.

So, here it is, the first article after a long time!

How to upgrade github pages?

Clone existing repo on terminal

 $ git clone git@github.com:mokpro/mokpro.github.io.git

Follow the Jekyll Instructions to create a new blog

Install the jekyll and bundler gems
```
  $ gem install jekyll bundler
```

Create a new Jekyll site at ./mokpro.github.io

  # `--force` to ensure outdated files are overwritten
  $ jekyll new mokpro.github.io --force

Review all the diffs

 $ git status
    
 Changes to be committed:
 (use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
   modified:   .gitignore
   new file:   404.html
   modified:   Gemfile
   modified:   Gemfile.lock
   modified:   _config.yml
   modified:   about.md
   deleted:    index.html

Commit changes and push to a new branch

 $ git commit -m 'upgrade jekyll'
 $ git push origin HEAD

Create a pull request and merge it #6, it’s done!
