With easy setup instructions and helpful customization options, Jekyll JSON Feed Templates are a must-have for bloggers looking to expand their audience and improve user engagement.

Features

  • Multiple Feed Types: Generate various types of feeds including feed.json for recent posts, feed.category.json for specific categories, and feed.tag.json for individual tags.
  • External Linking Support: The feed.links.json feature allows you to curate posts that contain links to external websites, making it simple to create helpful linked lists.
  • Articles Filtering: The feed.articles.json option filters out any articles linking to external sites, perfect for focusing solely on your original content.
  • Easy Configuration: Customizing your Jekyll feed is straightforward with an edited _config.yml file that adds useful site variables like author, title, and description.
  • Simple Implementation: Just copy the desired JSON feed file to your root directory, run Jekyll, and a properly formatted feed will be available in your _site folder.
