Taming the bits / Domando los bits

My requirements are:
- Low cost or free, as my purpose is earning no money with it.
- Easy to learn and use
- Easy to insert snippets of code

My starting point for choosing has been this article.

Some candidates:

• Free Wordpress doesn't allow any plugins. You need some hosting if you want enough power.
• I've tried a little Weebly, but it isn't suitable for sharing code.
• Jekyll is powerful enough, it's integrated with github, and has a great community, but you cannot use any computer. You need to have installed git, Ruby. It uses familiar MarkDown syntax.
• Finally I've chosen Logdown, as:
  • it provides more visual feedback,
  • it also uses MarkDown syntax.
    
  • the free edition covers my needs.
  • I have always the choice of exporting my blog elsewhere.
