jekyll-foundation-5-starter

Start a github pages website powerd by Jekyll using Foundation/SCSS in under 5 minutes!

What it is.

Ever wanted a simple but nice looking responsive website as your project page or page for your repo? Are you in a hackathon needing to put up a working website in munites? I do. Here is what I do, and I am sharing for you to use it, free. Free as in free speach AND free beer.

You can see the working example site here

For User & Organization Pages

See documentation

  1. Fork this repo to your user or project
  2. From the settings rename the repo to username.github.io naming scheme.

For Project Pages

See documentation

  1. Create a gh-pages branch, i.e. git checkout -b gh-pages
  2. Download the contents of this repo
  3. Replace the entire branch contents with unzipped stuff
  4. Add, Commit then Publish the branch to github, i.e. git push --set-upstream origin gh-pages

To edit contents:

  1. edit _config.yml
  2. edit html/md files (hint: _layouts/default.html is the base)
  3. edit sass and run grunt (hint: Try editing scss/_stettings.scss)
  4. edit _include/nav.html

Use at your own resk, and follw licence restriction of each products used. Most are MIT (OK to use commercially).

Useful command:

Run grunt to compile css from sass by simply run

grunt

from your terminal. It will launch watch. control-c to stop.

You need to have grunt installed. This blog post may be useful if you are like me and running Mac OS X.

To run jekyll locally, run

bundle exec jekyll serve --watch

Your website should be viewable by going to localhost:4000

If you want to make sure foundation is up to date, try

foundation update

(requires bower)

Github's doc on how to use Jekyll on Github Pages.

Special Thanks

Special thanks to HTML 5 Boilerplate whose code I have based this on.

@kionoshp's padding-margin. Because it has become part of every site that I manage.

and Font Awesome for bing awesome.
