Muffin Bambus
===========

A [Muffin](http://www.richbray.me/muffin) template/theme applicable for Jekyll, written by [Miguel Gonzalez](https://github.com/MyRealityCoding).
Purpose
-------
Bambus is made for [the blog](http://my-reality.de) of Miguel Gonzalez. Any usage and modification and/or duplication is fully allowed.
Design
------

How to install
--------------
At first, download the latest version of bambus. Open the folder and make sure to run the install script before moving on:
```bash
sh install.sh
```
After that you should be able to visit your website on *http://localhost:4000*
How to build
------------
To build your website, run:
```bash
sh build.sh
```
How to update
--------------
To fetch the latest version of bambus simply run:
```bash
bash update.sh
```
Getting started
-----
You can customize the theme without changing code directly.
### Site title
You can change the default site title in the ```_config.yml``` file:
```yml
name: your:site
```
The colon ```:``` will be highlighted as white. It is recommended to use that because it fits in the theme of bam:bus.
### Navigation Menu
To change the links and icons of the navigation bar, simply modify the file ```_config.yml``` of Jekyll. bam:bus supports [FontAwesome icons](http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/). Here is an example how to define a custom link in the navigation bar:
```yml
navigation:
- text: Social
title: Follow me @tweetmyreality
url: https://twitter.com/tweetmyreality
icon: icon-twitter
```
### Meta data
To have some information about your person and a small description, customize the following lines in the ```_config.yml```:
```yml
author:
name: Miguel Gonzalez
email: miguel-gonzalez@gmx.de>
url: http://my-reality.de
description: My name
image: /img/bambus-icon.png
```
### Links
To add links in the footer, simply add the following lines into the file ```_config.yml```:
```yml
links:
- url: link
name: Link1
- url: link
name: Link2
- url: link
name: Link3
```
Development
