Once you've installed the theme, you're ready to work on your Jekyll site. To start off, I would recommend updating _config.yml
with your site's details.
To build and serve your site, run:
$ bundle exec jekyll serve
And you're all set! Head over to http://127.0.0.1:4000/ to see your site in action.
