Setup

In the case you're cloning this repo, follow those instructions:

Customization

See the settings documentation to customize layout, titles, social media and more.

Theme

You can easily change the theme colors by changing the file src/yml/theme.yml, then running gulp build in your terminal.

GitHub pages

It's a known issue that you can't run Gulp when deploying the website into GitHub pages. So, you must change the theme colors and run gulp build locally, then push the changes into your repo, there is no other way.

To see how your website is going to look like when you deploy it, run bundle exec jekyll serve locally and access http://127.0.0.1:4000/.

Posts

Use the Front Matter properties to create posts.

Note: In the case you're cloning this repo, you can use the available script to generate posts automatically.

File a GitHub issue please.
