This theme is Jekyll port of vangeltzo. I couldn’t stop myself to port this theme when I saw his site. And he kindly gave me permission to share this with you.
_config.yml
file.index.md
._data/projects.yaml
images
folder. (eg. logo.png
, logo-small.png
)_posts
folder and add yours.images
folder.YourUserName.github.io
That’s all.
If you want to make a Project Page, you have to use gh-pages
branch. For Personal Page; master
branch. More info here.
A quick checklist of the files you’ll want to edit to get up and running.
_config.yml
is your friend. Open it up and personalize it. Most variables are self explanatory but here’s an explanation of each if needed:
The title of your site… shocker!
Example title: My Awesome Site
The description to use for meta tags and homepage.
Used to generate absolute urls in sitemap.xml
, feed.xml
, and for generating canonical URLs in <head>
. When developing locally either comment this out or use something like http://localhost:4000
so all assets load properly. Don’t include a trailing /
.
Examples:
url: http://taylantatli.me/Halve
url: http://localhost:4000
url: //cooldude.github.io
url:
Your site’s logo. It will be shown on homepage. Also used for twitter meta tags.
Here we will set images for left block. Example:
To set what image links appear in the overlay menu edit _data/projects.yaml
. Use the following format to set the URL, title, image and project status for as many links as you’d like. If you set completed
to false
like completed: false
, it won’t be clickable until you set it true like completed: true
Halve Theme use Jekyll Compress to compress html output. But it can cause errors if you use “linenos” (line numbers). I suggest don’t use line numbers for codes, because it won’t look good with this theme, also i didn’t give a proper style for them. If you insist to use line numbers, just remove layout: compress
string from layouts. It will disable compressing.
You can set left block image per post. Just add image: some link
to your post’s front matter. If you don’t set this, default post image will be used from _config.yml
.
image: /assets/img/some-image.png
or
