  <h1>Hello, world!</h1>
  <p>Your new site is ready to go. Feel free to delete this file and get started.</p>

    <h2>Post</h2>
    <p>To add a new blog post, simply run the following command:</p>
    <pre>plate post "My First Post Title"</pre>
    <p>The post will be put into the <em>posts</em> directory in the appropriate year and month sub-directories.</p>
  </div>

  <div class="span4">
    <h2>Build</h2>
    <p>To build your site, simply run the following command:</p>
    <pre>plate build</pre>
    <p>This will compile your site and all of its content into the <em>public</em> directory by default.</p>
  </div>

  <div class="span4">
    <h2>Publish</h2>
    <p>To publish your site, just drop the <em>public</em> directory into the root of any major web hosting server.</p>
    <p>If you are on a Mac you can easily run your site with the built-in web server by changing your destination directory to your user account&#8217;s <em>Sites</em> directory. You can do so by putting the following line in the plate.yml configuration file.</p>
    <pre>destination: ~/Sites/my-site</pre>
    <p>Note: this will overwrite anything existing in that folder, so be careful.</p>
