When installing the theme as a Ruby Gem its layouts, includes, stylesheets, and other assets are all bundled in the `gem`. Meaning they're not easily visible in your project.
Each of these files can be modified, but you'll need to copy the default version into your project first. For example, if you wanted to modify the default [`single` layout](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/_layouts/single.html), you'd start by copying it to `_layouts/single.html`.
**ProTip**: To locate theme files, run `bundle show minimal-mistakes-jekyll`. Then copy the files you want to override from the returned path, to the appropriate folder in your project.
