Subject: [PATCH] doc(#269) Document the lack of support for Jekyll
Compatibility with GitHub Pages is limited: Jekyll (and other static
site generators) are not supported. This change documents this
limitation on the home page and FAQs.
Although Markdown files are converted to HTML and thus accessible when
anonymized GitHub Pages is enabled for the repository, the Markdown to
HTML conversion includes only the content -- i.e., there is no special
formatting (as would be available when using Jekyll).
For anyone who wants to use Jekyll, a potential workaround is to build
the site locally and commit the generated site to the repository.
Closes #269
