Jekyll supports a flexible way to build your site’s URLs. You can specify the
permalinks for your site through the [Configuration](../configuration/) or in the
[YAML Front Matter](../frontmatter/) for each post. You’re free to choose one of
the built-in styles to create your links or craft your own. The default style is
`date`.
Permalinks are constructed by creating a template URL where dynamic elements are
represented by colon-prefixed keywords. For example, the default `date`
permalink is defined as `/:categories/:year/:month/:day/:title.html`.
## Template variables
