Testing An Ios Jekyll Publishing Workflow With Editorial

Tags:

After seeing An iPad-Only Workflow for Creating Jekyll Posts , I decided to try my own hand at it.

I purchased Editorial and started accruing workflows. I downloaded a New Jekyll Post workflow and made a few adjustments tailored to my site setup (namely asking for whether or not comments should be enabled and asking for tags). Next I found a Publish Jekyll Post workflow for publishing my posts to my Github repo. While these weren’t perfect, I was able to learn how workflows in Editorial are built and I was able to customize these workflows to be more inline with how I work. I had been looking for a way to publish content to my site given my new Jekyll setup and I had been unhappy with what I had found. I had even contemplated writing my own app to accomplish this task (and I still might), but I think I’ll give this a try for now.
