GitHub pages
Git Pages it’s a wonderful platform to start your blog\website at zero price. I recommend every beginner should try this to start their blog. It hosts your site on GitHub where you have source control for your code\site.
Theme and Framework
Minimal Mistakes by Michael Rose build on Jekyll one of the popular static site generator.
Configuration changes I made
Will update them here
Editor I use
Visual Studio Code is my IDE to write code and blog posts.
Comments
Staticman v2 is hosting my comments.
Staticman
Later a long struggle for I came to know that Staticman is not longer providing an API to host your comments, rather you should deploy your instance of Staticman to host your comments. Here is a wonderful article by Tavius down and another article by Willy McAllister to deploy and integrate it with the blog.
