# Hitchens
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An inarguably well-designed Jekyll theme.
|
|
|
|
Undoubtably one of the great minds of our time, Christopher Hitchens challenged his readers to think deeply on topics of politics, religion, war, and science. This Jekyll theme is designed in his memory.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Add this line to your Jekyll site's `Gemfile`:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
gem "hitchens-theme"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And add this line to your Jekyll site's `_config.yml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
theme: hitchens-theme
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And then execute:
|
|
|
|
$ bundle
|
|
|
|
Or install it yourself as:
|
|
|
|
$ gem install hitchens-theme
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Home Layout
|
|
|
|
The `home` layout presents a list of articles ordered chronologically. All articles are presented in one page, similar to a book's table of contents.
|
|
|
|
The masthead of the home page is derived from the `title` and `description` set in your site's `_config.yml` file.
|
|
|
|
#### Navigation
|
|
|
|
To include navigation in your site's masthead:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a `_data` directory in the root of your site.
|
|
2. Add a `menu.yml` file to the `_data` directory.
|
|
3. Use the following format to list your menu items:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
- title: About
|
|
url: /about
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Be sure to start your `url`s with a `/`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Post Layout
|
|
|
|
A sparsely decorated layout designed to present long-form writing in a manner that's pleasing to read.
|
|
|
|
### Credits
|
|
|
|
The theme credits that appear at the bottom of each page can be turned off by including the following line in your site's `_config.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hide_credits: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Font
|
|
|
|
The theme includes a version of [EB Garamond](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/EB+Garamond), designed by Georg Duffner and Octavio Pardo. A [copy of the license](https://github.com/patdryburgh/hitchens/blob/master/assets/fonts/OFL.txt) has been included in the `assets` folder and must be included with any distributions of this theme that include the EB Garamond font files.

## Development
|
|
|
|
To set up your environment to develop this theme, run `bundle install`.
|
|
|
|
The theme is setup just like a normal Jekyll site. To test the theme, run `bundle exec jekyll serve` and open your browser at `http://localhost:4000`. This starts a Jekyll server using the theme. Add pages, documents, data, etc. like normal to test the theme's contents. As you make modifications to the theme and to your content, your site will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh, just like normal.
