## Build your website in 3 steps
Getting started is *literally* as easy as 1-2-3 :smile:
Scroll down to see the steps involved, but here is a 45-second GIF just as a reference as you work through the steps. You might need to wait a few seconds until the "video" gets back to its beginning.

### 3. Customize your website settings
Edit the `_config.yml` file to change all the settings to reflect your site. To edit the file, click on it and then click on the pencil icon (watch the GIF tutorial above if you're confused). The settings in the file are fairly self-explanatory and I added comments inside the file to help you further. Any line that begins with a pound sign (`#`) is a comment, and the rest of the lines are settings.

Another way to edit the config file (or any other file) is to use [prose.io](http://prose.io/), which is just a simple interface to allow you to more intuitively edit files or new new files to your project.
After you save your changes to the config file (by clicking on "Commit changes" as the GIF tutorial shows), your website should be ready in a minute or two at `yourusername.github.io`. Every time you make a change to any file, your website will get rebuilt and should be updated in about a minute or so.

You can now visit your shiny new website, which will be seeded with several sample blog posts and a couple other pages. Your website is at `http://yourusername.github.io` (replace `yourusername` with your user name). Do not add `www` to the URL - it will not work!
**Note:** The GIF above goes through the setup for a user with username `daattalitest`. I only edited one setting in the `_config.yml` file in the video, but **you should actually go through the rest of the settings as well. Don't be lazy, go through all the settings :)**
