Repository navigation
Do we want to use github pages for logiksim.org? #23
Description
I was wondering whether using github pages (https://pages.github.com/) to quickly get logiksim.org up and running might make sense for us.
Advantages are that github will care about hosting, caching, SSL and security. We can deploy by simply pushing to the repo and it seems like they offer some basic templates you fill with markdown we could use. One drawbacks is it having to be completely static (though I don't see that as a problem at this stage).
Thoughts?

Sounds like a great idea, I currently don't see any problem with github pages.

I created a placeholder page using the built-in generator at https://logiksim.github.io/ . Enough to get started but the built-in generator and its themes aren't any good imho. We'll likely want to switch to a static page generator. Github supports and suggest jekyll. There seem to be a lot of free themes for it out there (e.g. under http://jekyllthemes.org/ ). I think we should be able to use any other static page generator (don't see why) though.

I agree, Jekyll sounds awesome!
