a minimal, plane ghost theme

Kevino is a ghost blogging platform theme. The theme features a minimal, responsive design with a cover page, disqus comment integration, font icons and various color options.

There is a beautiful full screen landing page for you to display a cover image with blur effect. I suppied several color for you to choose for the cover, while of course you can add your own. You can also place your avatar, blog title, your bio and some social button here.

Kevino is following the responsive design and works well in mobile devices. You may find some events is driven by great animation, thanks to the Animate.css, which makes all these possible.

Integrate comment system with a simple user name input with Disqus. Use Font Awesome icon to express yourself better. They are perfect for a personal site (such as blog), as well as some commercial CMS.

highlight.js is used as the code highlight engine of this theme. You can get a clean and good-look code block in your tech blog.

##Installation

1. Go to your Ghost site folder (via FTP or just on hard drive if you are hosted locally).
2. Find content/themes folder — go inside.
3. Upload Kevino folder there.
4. Restart Ghost.
5. Open site's dashboard (http://yoursite.com/ghost).
6. Navigate to "Settings".
7. At the very bottom find "Theme" line — select "Kevino" from dropdown menu.
8. Click "Save". Done

#####Comments

Ghost doesn't have native comment system yet, so we'll have to use third party solution. And this solution is Disqus.

1. Go to disqus.com and sign up. Or in, if you already have an account.
2. Register new site and get a short name of Disqus.
3. Open "comments.hbs".
4. Add Disqus short name to disqus_shortname and save the file.
5. Open "post.hbs".
6. replace the {{!-- {{> comments}} --}} with {{> comments}} in post.hbs.
7. Save the file. Done

You should update the links and icons in partials/social.hbs. The icons comes from Font Awesome, see here for all icons you can use.

#####Analyze it!

If you want to see statistics of your blog, you may use Google Analytics or something else.

1. Open "analytics.hbs"
2. Paste code you got from any analytics service there.
3. Save the file. Done

###Not the end — the begining!

Well done! Your blog is ready and set to go. Hope you'll like it.
