## Installation
There are three ways to install the theme: as a Ruby gem (for self-hosted sites), as a Ruby gem + jekyll-remote-theme plugin (GitHub Pages hosted sites), or forking/directly copying all of the theme files into your project.
### Ruby Gem Method
1. Install the theme as a Ruby Gem by adding it to your `Gemfile` like so:
```ruby
gem "minimal-mistakes-jekyll"
```
2. Fetch and update bundled gems by running the following [Bundler](http://bundler.io/) command:
```bash
bundle
```
3. Set the `theme` in your project's Jekyll `_config.yml` file:
```yaml
theme: minimal-mistakes-jekyll
```
To update the theme run `bundle update`.
## GitHub Pages Compatible Methods
1. Create/replace the contents of your `Gemfile` with the following:
```ruby
source "https://rubygems.org"
gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins
gem "jekyll-remote-theme"
```
2. Fetch and update bundled gems by running the following [Bundler](http://bundler.io/) command:
```bash
bundle
```
3. Add `remote_theme: "mmistakes/minimal-mistakes"` to your `_config.yml` file.
4. Add `jekyll-remote-theme` to the `plugins` (previously gems) array in your `_config.yml` file:
```yaml
plugins:
- jekyll-remote-theme
```
## Usage
For detailed instructions on how to configure, customize, add/migrate content, and more read the [theme's documentation](https://mmistakes.github.io/minimal-mistakes/docs/quick-start-guide/).

## Contributing
Having trouble working with the theme? Found a typo in the documentation? Interested in adding a feature or [fixing a bug](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/issues)? Then by all means [submit an issue](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/issues/new) or [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/). If this is your first pull request, it may be helpful to read up on the [GitHub Flow](https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/) first.
Minimal Mistakes has been designed as a base for you to customize and fit your site's unique needs. Please keep this in mind when requesting features and/or submitting pull requests. If it's not something that most people will use, I probably won't consider it. When in doubt ask.
This goes for author sidebar links and "share button" additions -- I have no intention of merging in every possibly option, the essentials are there to get you started :smile:.
### Pull Requests
When submitting a pull request:
1. Clone the repo.
2. Create a branch off of `master` and give it a meaningful name (e.g. `my-awesome-new-feature`).
3. Open a pull request on GitHub and describe the feature or fix.
Theme documentation and demo pages can be found in the [`/docs`](docs) if submitting improvements, typo corrections, etc.
## Development
To set up your environment to develop this theme, run `bundle install`.
To test the theme, run `bundle exec rake preview` and open your browser at `http://localhost:4000/test/`. This starts a Jekyll server using content in the `test/` directory. As modifications are made to the theme and test site, it will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh.
