If this '/' is not present, then the second pagination code snippet under the "Render the paginated Posts" section will have a bug. Let's say my page 1 is located at host:port/blog/index.html and my paginate_path setting in _config.yml is "blog/page:num/". The observation if the paginate_path does not start with a '/' is that the href generated for the page numbers will have 2 'blogs', i.e. for page 2 the href will incorrectly appear as 'host:port/blog/blog/page2' instead of just 'host:port/blog/page2'.
Jekyll
By Tom Preston-Werner, Nick Quaranto, Parker Moore, and many awesome contributors!
Jekyll is a simple, blog-aware, static site generator perfect for personal, project, or organization sites. Think of it like a file-based CMS, without all the complexity. Jekyll takes your content, renders Markdown and Liquid templates, and spits out a complete, static website ready to be served by Apache, Nginx or another web server. Jekyll is the engine behind GitHub Pages, which you can use to host sites right from your GitHub repositories.
Philosophy
Jekyll does what you tell it to do — no more, no less. It doesn't try to outsmart users by making bold assumptions, nor does it burden them with needless complexity and configuration. Put simply, Jekyll gets out of your way and allows you to concentrate on what truly matters: your content.
