How to run “bundle exec jekyll new .”

Question

I\'m trying to follow \"Creating a GitHub Pages site with Jekyll\" but when I run any of these commands:

$ bundle exec jekyll VERSION new .
$ bundle exec jekyll          


        

Answer 1

The GitHub walk-through left these commands out, but Bundler's bundle init explains it:

This command is necessary to create the Gemfile:

$ bundle init

and this one to populate it with Jekyll:

$ bundle add jekyll

so that when I re-ran my setup command, it worked:

$ bundle exec jekyll 4.0.0 new . --force

The specific version of jekyll that GitHub uses can be found here.
