## Installation
*Before starting, please be sure that you have
[installed Hugo](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#step-1-install-hugo) and
[created a new site](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#step-2-create-a-new-site). After that, you are ready
to install **Mainroad**.*
From your project's root directory, run:
```
git clone https://github.com/vimux/mainroad.git themes/mainroad
```
Or, if you don't plan to make any significant changes but want to track and update the theme, you can add it as a git
submodule via the following command:
```
git submodule add https://github.com/vimux/mainroad.git themes/mainroad
```
Next, open `config.toml` in the base of the Hugo site and ensure the theme option is set to `mainroad`:
```
theme = "mainroad"
```
