Installation

Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile:

gem "jekyll-theme-twenty"

And add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml:

theme: jekyll-theme-twenty

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-theme-twenty

Usage

For those unfamiliar with how Jekyll works, check out jekyllrb.com for all the details, or read up on just the basics of front matter, writing posts, and creating pages.

Initialization

Copy the file _config.yml from the theme repository to the root of your website folder tree. The following section explains what the settings impact and how to configure _config.yml properly.

Configuration

You can use the following custom parameters in _config.yml.

Site

Both title and subtitle are displayed side by side :

  • in the tab name
  • at the top of the page, in the header

Social

Social icons will appear for each url your fill in, among facebook_url etc.

Contact

Your contact information can be used in contact forms, the footer or anywhere else.

Recaptcha

The contact form is validated using google's recaptcha plugin. First, you need to [sign your website up] to enable the plugin. Google will provide you with a client-side integration key: copy it to _config.yml under recaptcha.sitekey.

Publication

On Github Pages

In your own website's repository, edit the _config.yml file:

url: "https://<github-account-name>.github.io/<repository-name>"

Build the website with:

$ JEKYLL_ENV=production bundle exec jekyll build

Commit all your work to the current branch.

Create a branch named gh-pages:

$ git checkout -b gh-pages

And finally replace the repository's content with the generated webpages:

$ mkdir ~/backup
$ mv ./* ~/backup/
$ mv ~/backup/.git ./
$ mv ~/backup/_site/* ./
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "First draft"

The repository's content is backup in the home directory of the user.

And finally push to github

$ git push --u origin gh-pages

On any server

In your own website's directory, edit the _config.yml file:

url: "https:<domain-name>"

Build the website with:

$ JEKYLL_ENV=production bundle exec jekyll build

Copy the content of the folder _site to your server, most likely in www.

If necessary, configure your server to serve this directory.

Contributing

Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at https://github.com/apehex/jekyll-theme-twenty. This project is intended to be a safe, welcoming space for collaboration, and contributors are expected to adhere to the Contributor Covenant code of conduct.

Development

To set up your environment to develop this theme, run bundle install.

To test the theme, run bundle exec jekyll serve and open your browser at http://localhost:4000. This starts a Jekyll server using the theme. Add pages, documents, data, etc. like normal to test the theme's contents. As you make modifications to the theme and to your content, your site will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh, just like normal.

When the theme is released, only the files in _layouts, _includes, _sass and assets tracked with Git are be bundled. To add a custom directory to the theme-gem, please edit the regexp in jekyll-theme-twenty.gemspec accordingly.

This is Twenty, a minimal, multi-page responsive site template for HTML5 UP.

As the name implies, this is my twentieth (!) design for HTML5 UP. Since the last
few have been single page affairs, I decided to go with something a bit more conventional
and threw in four extra page layouts. Beyond that, it's the usual drill: fully responsive,
built on HTML5/CSS3, and CCA licensed like all my other stuff. Sass sources are also
included for those of you into that sort of thing (entirely optional).

Special thanks to Michael Domaradzki (md.photomerchant.net) for allowing me to use
his excellent photos in Twenty's demo*.
