generator-sizzle-jekyll

Yeoman Generator using Jekyll, Compass, RequireJS (with Almond), Normalize, Bourbon and Neat, jQuery, Greensock, underscore.js, and JSSignals to help you quickly scaffold a static blog.

Installing Compass and Jekyll

1. Make sure you have Ruby installed. Perhaps a better way of installing ruby is via rbenv
2. Install Bundler if you haven't already
3. In your project root run:

$ bundle install

Usage

Install generator-sizzle-jekyll:

npm install -g generator-sizzle-jekyll

Make a new directory, and cd into it:

mkdir my-new-project && cd $_

Run yo sizzle-jekyll, optionally passing an app name:

yo sizzle-jekyll [app-name]

Running your project locally

Run grunt for building and grunt serve for preview

Creating a new blogpost

$ grunt post --name "My new Blog post yay"

Deploying your blog

The simplest way of deploying your blog is to use Github Pages. Simply create a new branch called gh-pages, copy the contents of your pre-built dist folder from master branch, commit your changes and push them to remote.
