Package a theme#

The part that allows this project gem to be packaged as an installable gem-based theme is this file:

• jekyll-theme-quickstart.gemspec

The other parts like the config and Gemfile or the layout and includes directories are standard for a Jekyll project. The markdown pages in the root are included for a local demo and are not packaged in the theme.

Resources:

• Creating a gem-based theme in Jekyll docs.
• Publishing your theme in Jekyll docs.
• Adding a theme to your GitHub Pages site using Jekyll guide on Github's help.
