DeepThought

A simple blog theme focused on writing powered by Bulma and Zola.

Live Demo

Live version of the website is available at here

Installation

Get Zola and follow their guide on installing a theme. Make sure to add theme = "DeepThought" to your config.toml

Check zola version (only 0.9.0+) Just to double-check to make sure you have the right version. It is not supported to use this theme with a version under 0.9.0.

How to serve?

Go into your sites directory, and type zola serve. You should see your new site at localhost:1111.

NOTE: you must provide the theme options variables in config.toml to serve a functioning site

Deployment

Zola already has great documentation for deploying to Netlify or Github Pages. I won't bore you with a regurgitated explanation.
