jekyll-theme-minimal-ryan
Installation
Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile
:
gem "jekyl-theme-minimal-ryan"
And add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml
:
theme: minimal-ryan
And then execute:
bundle
This will install all dependencies.
Usage
To test the theme locally, run
bundle exec jekyll serve
which will serve your site at http://localhost:4000.
Customization
All customizable options can be configured in _data/theme.yml. Simply create your own data file and override the settings in _data/theme.yml.
Adding a Blog Home
The theme provides you with a blog home that can display all the posts in the _posts folder. Simple create a file at the root directory and give it the blog
layout in the front matter.
Customizing the Header
Whenever you create a new page (with any layout) at the root directory, the theme will add an entry to the header. If you want the name of the entry to be different from the file, add a title to the front matter of the page. This title will show up on the header instead.

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.
License
The theme is available as open source under the terms of the MIT License.
