Minimal Mistakes is a flexible two-column Jekyll theme. Perfect for hosting your personal site, blog, or portfolio on GitHub or self-hosting on your own server. As the name implies --- styling is purposely minimalistic to be enhanced and customized by you :smile:.

## Usage
|
|
|
|
For detailed instructions on how to configure, customize, add content, and more read the [theme's documentation](https://mmistakes.github.io/minimal-mistakes/docs/quick-start-guide/).
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Gem version of the theme requires Jekyll v3.3+ and is not currently supported on [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/). You can still use the theme with GitHub Pages, you'll just need to install using the old "[repo fork method](https://mmistakes.github.io/minimal-mistakes/docs/installation/)".
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
Add this line to your Jekyll site's `Gemfile`:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
gem "minimal-mistakes-jekyll"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add this line to your Jekyll site's `_config.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
theme: minimal-mistakes-jekyll
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then run Bundler to install the theme gem and dependencies:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bundle install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To update the theme run `bundle update`.

## 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
|
|
|
|
To help me out try to avoid creating pull requests on `master` and instead branch off of `develop`. It's much easier for me to test, merge, and roll them into new releases this way.
|
|
|
|
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 your theme and the contents of the `test/` directory. As you make modifications to your theme and to the example site, your site will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh.
