Moon is a minimal, one column jekyll theme.
Clone or fork this repo and change the url and puburl in _config.yml
To learn how to install and use this theme check out the Setup Guide for more information.
You will need ruby and the ruby-gem github-pages installed on your computer, if you want to serve the Jekyll page locally.
I highly recommend using rbenv. Installation is easy if you already have homebrew:
$ brew install rbenv
After you have rbenv installed, cd to your Jekyll site's directory, and install a Ruby version. This theme was tested on 2.4.0:
# list available versions:
$ rbenv install -l
# install a ruby version (this might take a while):
$ rbenv install 2.4.0
# set the ruby version in the working directory:
$ rbenv local 2.4.0
# see which version is selected:
$ rbenv versions
With rbenv You don't need to SUDO, but we do need to install some gems:
# everything we need is in github-pages, including jekyll
$ gem install github-pages
# we also need bundler
$ gem install bundler
# to install the required gems for this project specified in the gemfile
$ bundler install
you can checkout what bundler does.
if you are struck with some of these ruby/ gems/ bundler stuff, this link might be helpful.
$ bundle exec jekyll serve --watch # the watch flag looks for real-time changes to files you edit
