Hosting jekyll site on vercel (now.sh)

It’s very easy to host ready jekyll site on vercel.

Vercel was previously called now.sh or zeit…

In fact all what I’ve done is run vercel in cmd.
If You don’t have vercel already installed on Your machine You need to do it first.

1. Open command line cmd and type vercel

If it doesn’t work, you probably need to install now.

1b. Install Vercel

type npm i -g vercel and it should help. Then return to point 1.

1c. Setup vercel account

You probably need to setup vercel account so follow their guide.

2. Test

In command line in your jekyll project folder vercel.
This will display URL to site in preview mode.

I have accepted all default settings and chosen project name as janheski.

3. Deploy

In command line in your jekyll project folder vercel --prod.
This deploys to production URL.

After that I had to wait for few minutes but eventually my site was build, deployed and ready automatically on https://janheski.vercel.app :D
