# Jekyll Kickstart
Create your Jekyll blog in minutes, without needing to set up local development.
I found Jekyll a little tricky to set up. I ran into complications while setting up local development, configuring plugins, and figuring out a good workflow for blogging. After finishing [my blog](http://jekyllkickstart.com), I found that I really didn't need a lot of those complexities in the first place.
