Test the theme#

Setup and run a server for developing and testing the theme

This project has a GH Pages site on the gh-pages branch for testing the theme on the master branch. Follow these steps to get that setup locally.

Clone#

If is not safe to switch between branches in the same repo, the installed gems and the .gitignore files are different enough that conflicts will arise.

So it is safest to clone the repo under a different directory name and keep it under the gh-page branch.

Clone the repo:

$ git clone git@github.com:MichaelCurrin/jekyll-theme-quickstart.git jekyll-theme-quickstart-gh
$ cd jekyll-theme-quickstart-gh
$ git checkout gh-pages
$ git branch -D master

Install project dependencies#

Install gems using Bundler:

$ make install

Start dev server#

$ make serve
