minimal-categorized is a flexible Jekyll theme, designed for sites with content easily aggregated into two categories. It's main focus is on separating two main categories, while maintaining minimal style and full customization. Demo is available here.

Installation

There are three ways to install:

  • As a ruby gem theme:

    Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile:

    gem "minimal-categorized"
    

    And add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml:

    theme: minimal-categorized
    

    And then execute:

      $ bundle
    

    Or install it yourself as:

      $ gem install minimal-categorized
    
  • As a remote theme (GitHub Pages compatible)

    In your Jekyll site's _config.yml remove other themes and add this entry:

    remote_theme: ItsMeaga1n/minimal-categorized
    
  • Forking/directly copying all of the theme files into your project.

Development

To set up your environment to develop this theme, run bundle install.

Your theme is setup just like a normal Jekyll site! To test your theme, run bundle exec jekyll serve and open your browser at http://localhost:4000. This starts a Jekyll server using your theme. Add pages, documents, data, etc. like normal to test your theme's contents. As you make modifications to your theme and to your content, your site will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh, just like normal.

When your theme is released, only the files in _layouts, _includes, _sass and assets tracked with Git will be bundled. To add a custom directory to your theme-gem, please edit the regexp in minimal-categorized.gemspec accordingly.
