# White Paper

**White Paper** is a theme for Jekyll. It is made keeping content in focus and is best for writers/developers who also like to share code with their essays.

```
# ensure all the required bundles are installed
bundle install
bundle exec jekyll post "Tooling Considered Harmful"

Configuration file: /Users/vinitkumar/projects/vinitkumar.github.com/_config.yml
New post created at _posts/2019-03-06-tooling-considered-harmful.md

## How to use White Paper

Fork the repo to your account by clicking the button on the top right as shown in the image:

![fork](https://cldup.com/vOF0oaUkh5-3000x3000.png) and then where you want to fork it as shown below.

Next, Go the the project settings and change the repository name to `.github.io` where username is your username.

Change these entries in the `_config.yml` file:

Also, change this line in head.html [link](https://github.com/vinitkumar/white-paper/blob/9ad021a8f94c6240351bd57eda301b5f207e554e/_includes/head.html#L28)

```html

```

This will make sure that the path of CSS is correct and the theme loads correctly.

```yml
master_repo: false
url: ".github.io"
rtl: false # change to true if posts is in Arabic/other Right to left language.
```
Also, change all other fields in the `_config.yml` file to your choice.

## Installation

### Local Development

This theme requires you to install couple of tools first to setup jekyll locally.

```$
git clone [email protected]:vinitkumar/white-paper.git

# If you have ruby installed.
gem install jekyll bundler

# If you have node installed.
npm install
sudo npm install -g grunt-cli #to get the task runner for grunt.
bundle install
jekyll serve

# on running the serve script, the site will be live on
http://127.0.0.1:4000
```
This theme uses grunt to concat & minify the css for best performance. In order to prepare the css build. Run `grunt`
It will create a main.min.css file in the css folder.

### Switch Syntax Highlighting.

This theme also provides syntax highlighting in different theme. Inside css folder, there is a syntax folder.

```$
.
├── emacs.css
├── github.css
├── monokai.css
├── native.css
├── syntax.css
└── vim.css

```

Now in the gruntfiles.js

```js
concat: {
dist: {
src: [
'css/base.css',
'css/sytax/emacs.css', // change this to another theme if you prefer, like vim.css and run grunt
'css/octicons.css'
],
dest: 'css/<%= pkg.name %>.add.css'
}
}
```
