Hati

A Ghost theme for photography

First time using a Ghost theme?

Ghost uses a simple templating language called Handlebars for its themes.

The main files are:

default.hbs - The parent template file, which includes your global header/footer
index.hbs - The main template to generate a list of posts, usually the home page
post.hbs - The template used to render individual posts
page.hbs - Used for individual pages
tag.hbs - Used for tag archives, eg. "all posts tagged with news"

Development

Hati styles are compiled using Gulp/PostCSS to polyfill future CSS spec. You'll need Node, Yarn and Gulp installed globally. After that, from the theme's root directory:

# install dependencies
yarn install

# run development server
yarn dev

Now you can edit /assets/css/ files, which will be compiled to /assets/built/ automatically.

The zip Gulp task packages the theme files into dist/<theme-name>.zip, which you can then upload to your site.

# create .zip file
yarn zip

PostCSS Features Used

Autoprefixer - Don't worry about writing browser prefixes of any kind, it's all done automatically with support for the latest 2 major versions of every browser.
Variables - Simple pure CSS variables
Color Function

SVG Icons

Hati uses inline SVG icons, included via Handlebars partials. You can find all icons inside /partials/icons. To use an icon just include the name of the relevant file, eg. To include the SVG icon in /partials/icons/rss.hbs - use {{> "icons/rss"}}.

You can add your own SVG icons in the same manner.
