Please note: Create a master-branch if you want to use this theme with *.github.io.
Getting Started
If you're completely new to Jekyll, I recommend checking out the documentation at http://jekyllrb.com or there's a tutorial by Smashing Magazine.
Installing Jekyll
If you don't have Jekyll already installed, you will need to go ahead and do that.
$ gem install jekyll
Verify your Jekyll version
It's important to also check your version of Jekyll since this project uses Native Sass which is only supported by 2.0+.
$ jekyll -v
# This should be jekyll 2.0.0 or later
Fork, then clone
Fork the repo, and then clone it so you've got the code locally.
Modify the _config.yml
The _config.yml located in the root of the Pixyll directory contains all of the configuration details
for the Jekyll site.
Jekyll Serve
Then, start the Jekyll Server. I always like to give the --watch option so it updates the generated HTML when I make changes.
$ jekyll serve --watch
Now you can navigate to localhost:4000 in your browser to see the site.
Using Github Pages
You can host your Jekyll site for free with Github Pages. Click here for more information.
