Easily create blog post excerpts for Jekyll and Github Pages (Example)

Abstraction: Jekyll blog excerpt generation via HTML comment delimiter technique

Key points:

• Insert <!--more--> in post content to mark the excerpt boundary
• In the blog loop template, split on <!--more--> and display only the first segment: {{ post.content | split:'<!--more-->' | first }}
• Mirrors the WordPress <!--more--> tag convention
• Works with both Jekyll standalone and GitHub Pages

Connections: Jekyll · Github Pages · Static Site Generation
