If there's any issue you are facing in setting up this theme I'm there for you. Just create an issue in this repository (http://github.com/hemangsk/Gravity), (https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-issue/) and I'll get back to you asap.
INSTALLATION
Dependencies
Gravity uses Jekyll and it's built-in SCSS compiler for the associated CSS, so the first thing you'll need is Jekyll itself:
$ gem install jekyllIn case you don't have the bundler gem installed already, you can install it as follows:
$ gem install bundlerFor pagination, Gravity uses the jekyll-paginate gem :
$ gem install jekyll-paginateUSAGE
Once you have the required gems, you can go ahead and clone the Gravity repository or download a zip of the master branch.
Run :
$ jekyll serveJekyll should now be generating your content!
ADDING POSTS
The theme by default ships with starter posts located in _posts/. Delete these posts and add your content to the _posts
folder to see them being served up by Jekyll. This would be a good guide to getting started on writing posts using Jekyll. We've added a concise guide below:
- Create a .markdown file inside
_postsfolder. - Name the file according to the format YY-MM-DD-[short name for your post].
2016-03-30-i-love-design.markdown- Write the Front Matter and content in the file.
