Tale

Tale is a minimal Jekyll theme curated for storytellers. Checkout the demo here.

Features

• Easy installation
• Compatible with GitHub Pages
• Responsive design (looks just as good on mobile)
• Syntax highlighting, with the help of Pygments
• Markdown and HTML text formatting
• Pagination of posts

Installation

As a Jekyll theme

1. Add this line to your Gemfile:

gem "tale"

2. In _config.yml replace the minima theme with tale:

theme: tale

3. Install the theme's gems and dependencies:

$ bundle

4. Rename index.md to index.html. Without this, the jekyll-paginate gem will not work.

5. Add these 2 lines in to _config.yml:

permalink:      /:year-:month-:day/:title
paginate:       5

As a Fork

1. Fork this repository

2. Delete the unnecessary files/folders: CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, LICENSE, README.md, tale.gemspec

3. Delete the baseurl line in _config.yml:

baseurl:        "/tale"   # delete this line

Usage

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.
