gem "jekyll-theme-minimax"

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

theme: jekyll-theme-minimax

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-theme-minimax

In anywhere you want to show the tag cloud, insert {% include tag_cloud.html %}.

You can manually write a page for each tag to list all posts that are labeled with the tag. For example, you want to show all posts labeled with jekyll, then create a page tag/jekyll.md:

---
layout: tag_page
tag: jekyll
---

Want free your hands? Run a script to generate all tag pages automatically: python scripts/tag-generator.py.

{% include category_archive.html %}

Minimax support Mathjax. You can write mathematical formulas in your posts if you set the math front matter to be true in these posts. Example.

You can insert {% include toc.html %} at anywhere you want to automatically generate a table of contents. Don't forget specify the below lines in _config.yml.

markdown: kramdown
kramdown:
  parse_block_html: true

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 jekyll-theme-minimax.gemspec accordingly.

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