Installation

Sample _config file here.

There are three possible ways for installing Chulapa:

A. Use our Github Template

Recommended if your are starting from scratch.

Create a Github account, click this link and quickstart your site!

B. Remote theme method

Recommended if you are migrating a previous site.

If you prefer not to use the template, you can use the jekyll-remote-theme method. Just follow these steps:

  1. Create a new GitHub repository or go to an existing one

  2. Add this line to your _config.yml:

    
    remote_theme: dieghernan/chulapa
    
    ... more config options
    
  3. Remove other remote_theme/theme instances of your _config.yml file.

C. Gem-based method 💎

With Gem-based themes, directories such as the assets, _layouts, _includes, and _sass are stored in the theme's gem, hidden from your immediate view. This allows for easier installation and updating as you don't have to manage any of the theme files.

To install as a Gem-based theme:

  1. Add the following to your Gemfile:

    gem "chulapa-jekyll"
    
  2. Fetch and update bundled gems by running the following Bundler command:

    bundle
    
  3. Set the theme in your project's Jekyll _config.yml file:

    theme: chulapa-jekyll
    

To update the theme run bundle update.
