krichel / jekyll-base Goto Github PK

Note that this repo is updated on an ongoing basis. I just added a new structure for adding colors, based on Material Design concepts, so the colors on the built site may be funky for the moment.

• Jekyll 3.2
• Bundler
• NPM
• BassCSS/PostCSS
• Uglify/ESLint
• Imagemin
• Browser-sync
• Anatol Broder's Compress HTML

This is what it looks like: lean-jekyll.surge.sh

Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/budparr/jekyll-base.git

cd into the repo's directory
cd jekyll-base

Remove the .git folder:
rm -rf .git

Update Gems bundle update

Update node_modules
npm install

Initial build: npm run initialize

Run NPM: npm start

Layouts, includes and assets are located in the _app folder. The assets folder is built entirely from the build process, so don't add anything directly to it. Note some of the scripts copied over are particular to my use, and/or for future use here.

• improve the uglify scripts in package.json, which currently reflect too many options are messy.
• clean up design (it's a bit thrown together)
• add basic search functionality via lunr.js
• add page-styling unit tests (ala WP theme unit tests)
• set up as gem-based theme?
• add Jekyll admin (pre-beta gem is installed - needs to be run in a separate instance)
