static-jekyll-gulp

Features:

• Jekyll
• Gulp
• SCSS + PostCSS
• LostGrid & Autoprefixer (PostCSS)
• Asset compilation (images, svg, javascripts, stylesheets)

Requirements:

• Ruby
• Node.js
• Yarn
• Gulp

Where things go

Place all of your assets in _assets:

$ tree _assets

_assets/
├── images
│   └── sample.jpg
├── js
│   └── application.js
├── scss
│   └── application.scss
└── svg
    └── sample.svg

Files with matching extensions will be watched and compiled into assets so Jekyll will make them available in the final build and keep compiled versions out of source control.

How would you add Bootstrap?

Add Bootstrap to the include paths in gulpfile.babel.js.

$ yarn add [email protected] tether jquery --dev

const includePaths = {
  js: [
    './node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js',
    './node_modules/tether/dist/js/tether.js',
    './node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js'
  ],
  stylesheets: [
    './node_modules/bootstrap/scss/'
  ]
}

1. This will automatically include any referenced javascript files in application.min.js.
2. This will only add SCSS paths into the @import mixin. You will need to import any referenced files in application.scss.
