Installation¶ ↑
Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile
:
gem "merriweather"
And add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml
:
theme: merriweather
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install merriweather

To add a post, simply make a .md
file in the _.posts
directory, named [YEAR]-[MONTH]-[DAY]-MY-AWESOME-TITLE
.
For example, in the directory:

Development¶ ↑
To set up your environment to develop this theme, run bundle install
.
Merriweather is setup just like a normal Jekyll site! To test, run bundle exec jekyll serve
and open your browser at http://localhost:4000
. This starts a Jekyll server using your theme. Add posts and other files to test your theme's contents.
When your theme is released, only the files in _layouts
, _includes
, _sass
and assets
tracked with Git will be bundled.
