# Pixyll
[pixyll.com](http://www.pixyll.com)
Pixyll is a simple, beautiful theme for Jekyll that emphasizes content rather than aesthetic fluff. It's mobile _first_, fluidly responsive, and delightfully lightweight.
It's pretty minimal, but leverages large type and drastic contrast to make a statement, on all devices.
This Jekyll theme was crafted with <3 by [John Otander](http://johnotander.com)
([@4lpine](https://twitter.com/4lpine)).
中文版 .
## Getting Started
If you're completely new to Jekyll, I recommend checking out the documentation at or there's a tutorial by [Smashing Magazine](http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2014/08/01/build-blog-jekyll-github-pages/).
### Installing Jekyll
If you don't have Jekyll already installed, you will need to go ahead and do that.
```
$ gem install jekyll
```
#### Verify your Jekyll version
It's important to also check your version of Jekyll since this project uses Native Sass which
is [only supported by 2.0+](http://jekyllrb.com/news/2014/05/06/jekyll-turns-2-0-0/).
```
$ jekyll -v
# This should be jekyll 2.0.0 or later
```
### Fork, then clone
Fork the repo, and then clone it so you've got the code locally.
### Modify the _config.yml
The `_config.yml` located in the root of the Pixyll directory contains all of the configuration details
for the Jekyll site. The defaults are:
```yml
# Site settings
title: Pixyll
email: [email protected]
author: John Otander
description: "A simple, beautiful theme for Jekyll that emphasizes content rather than aesthetic fluff."
baseurl: ""
url: "http://pixyll.com"
# Build settings
markdown: kramdown
permalink: pretty
paginate: 3
```
### Jekyll Serve
Then, start the Jekyll Server. I always like to give the `--watch` option so it updates the generated HTML when I make changes.
```
$ jekyll serve --watch
```
Now you can navigate to `localhost:4000` in your browser to see the site.
### Using Github Pages
You can host your Jekyll site for free with Github Pages. [Click here](https://pages.github.com/) for more information.
#### A configuration tweak if you're using a gh-pages sub-folder
In addition to your github-username.github.io repo that maps to the root url, you can serve up sites by using a gh-pages branch for other repos so they're available at github-username.github.io/repo-name.
This will require you to modify the `_config.yml` like so:
```yml
# Site settings
title: Repo Name
email: [email protected]
author: John Otander
description: "Repo description"
baseurl: "/repo-name"
url: "http://github-username.github.io"
# Build settings
markdown: kramdown
permalink: pretty
paginate: 3
```
This will ensure that the the correct relative path is constructed for your assets and posts. Also, in order to run the project locally, you will need to specify the blank string for the baseurl: `$ jekyll serve --baseurl ''`.
##### If you don't want the header to link back to the root url
You will also need to tweak the header include `/{{ site.baseurl }}`:
```html
```
A relevant Jekyll Github Issue:
### Contact Form
If you'd like to keep the contact form, which uses , you will need to update the email address.
Currently, the `contact.md` has the following:
```html
```
Where it says `[email protected]`, you will need to change that to the email that you wish to have the form data sent to. It will require you to fill the form out when you push it live for the first time so that you can confirm your email.
### Page Animation
If you would like to add a [fade-in-down effect](http://daneden.github.io/animate.css/), you can add `animated: true` to your `_config.yml`.
### Put in a Pixyll Plug
If you want to give credit to the Pixyll theme with a link to or my personal website somewhere, that'd be awesome. No worries if you don't.
### Enjoy
I hope you enjoy using Pixyll. If you encounter any issues, please feel free to let me know by creating an [issue](https://github.com/johnotander/pixyll/issues). I'd love to help.
## Upgrading Pixyll
Pixyll is always being improved by its users, so sometimes one may need to upgrade.
#### Ensure there's an upstream remote
If `git remote -v` doesn't have an upstream listed, you can do the following to add it:
```
git remote add upstream https://github.com/johnotander/pixyll.git
```
#### Pull in the latest changes
```
git pull upstream master
```
There may be merge conflicts, so be sure to fix the files that git lists if they occur. That's it!
