These are the slides from a talk about setting up a blog with a static website generator that I gave first to GGMUG and then the Atlanta .Net User Group.
I also did a workshop based on this content for the Atlanta Windows Apps group.
If you want a full, step-by-step course on getting your blog set up with a static website generator, you can check out my course on Pluralsight: Build a Better Blog with a Static Site Generator
