<h2>Overview</h2>
If you are a fan of using Org-mode for writing and enjoy the simplicity of Jekyll for blogging, then org-jekyll might have caught your attention. This tool was designed to facilitate the export of Org-mode posts into the format expected by Jekyll, specifically targeting subtrees marked with specific keywords and timestamps to create clean, organized blog entries. Though it hasn’t seen updates since 2014, understanding its functionality might still be beneficial for those exploring Jekyll and Org-mode integration.
While it's important to note that org-jekyll is no longer actively maintained, the concept of seamlessly connecting Org-mode with Jekyll remains compelling. It exemplifies how one can leverage the powerful features of Emacs and Org-mode for effective blogging practices, even if newer maintained alternatives may now be more suitable.
