 The Jekyll gem makes a `jekyll` executable available to you in your terminal.
 
-You can use this command in a number of ways:
+The `jekyll` program has several commands but the structure is always:
 
-* `jekyll new PATH` - Creates a new Jekyll site with default gem-based theme at specified path. The directories will be created as necessary.
-* `jekyll new PATH --blank` - Creates a new blank Jekyll site scaffold at specified path.
-* `jekyll build` or `jekyll b` - Performs a one off build your site to `./_site` (by default)
-* `jekyll serve` or `jekyll s` - Builds your site any time a source file changes and serves it locally
-* `jekyll doctor` - Outputs any deprecation or configuration issues
-* `jekyll clean` - Removes all generated files: destination folder, metadata file, Sass and Jekyll caches.
-* `jekyll help` - Shows help, optionally for a given subcommand, e.g. `jekyll help build`
-* `jekyll new-theme` - Creates a new Jekyll theme scaffold

+jekyll command [argument] [option] [argument_to_option]
+
+Examples:
+    jekyll new site/ --blank
+    jekyll serve --config _alternative_config.yml
+```
 
 Typically you'll use `jekyll serve` while developing locally and `jekyll build` when you need to generate the site for production.
 
+For a full list of options and their argument, see [Build Command Options](/docs/configuration/options/#build-command-options).
