Installation

  1. Install the theme as a Ruby Gem by adding it to your Gemfile like so:

    gem "jekyll-theme-basically-basic", :git => "https://github.com/mmistakes/jekyll-theme-basically-basic.git"
    
  2. Fetch and update your bundled gems by running the following Bundler command:

    bundle
    
  3. Set the theme in your projects Jekyll configuration, _config.yml:

    theme: jekyll-theme-basically-basic
    

Configuration

Configuration of site-wide elements (lang, title, description, image, author, etc.) happens in your projects _config.yml. See the example configuration in this repo for reference.

Skin

This theme comes in six different skins (color variations). To change skins add one of the following to your /_data/theme.yml file:

skin: default skin: night skin: plum
skin: sea skin: soft skin: steel

Google Fonts

This theme allows you to easily use Google Fonts throughout the theme. Simply add the following to your /_data/theme.yml, replacing the font name and weights accordingly.

google_fonts:
  - name: "Fira Sans"
    weights: "400,400i,600,600i"
  - name: "Fira Sans Condensed"

Text

To change text found throughout the theme add the following to your /_data/theme.yml file and customize as necessary.

t:
  skip_links: "Skip links"
  skip_primary_nav: "Skip to primary navigation"
  skip_content: "Skip to content"
  skip_footer: "Skip to footer"
  menu: "Menu"
  home: "Home"
  newer: "Newer"
  older: "Older"
  email: "Email"
  subscribe: "Subscribe"
  read_more: "Read More"
  posts: "Posts"
  page: "Page"
  of: "of"
  min_read: "min read"

Navigation

By default all internal pages with a title will be added to the “off-canvas” menu. For more granular control and sorting of these menu links:

  1. Create a custom list to override the default setting by adding a navigation_pages array to your /_data/theme.yml file.

  2. Add raw page paths in the order youd like:

    navigation_pages:
      - about.md
      - cv.md
    

Each menu links title and URL will be populated based on their title and permalink respectively.

Pagination

Break up the main listing of posts into smaller lists and display them over multiple pages by enabling pagination.

  1. Include the jekyll-paginate plugin in your Gemfile.

    group :jekyll_plugins do
      gem "jekyll-paginate"
    end
    
  2. Add jekyll-paginate to gems array in your _config.yml file and the following pagination settings:

    paginate: 5  # amount of posts to show per page
    paginate_path: /page:num/
    
  3. Create index.html (or rename index.md) in the root of your project and add layout: home paginate: true to its YAML Front Matter.

Author

Author information is used as meta data for post “by lines” and propagates the creator field of Twitter summary cards with the following YAML Front Matter in _config.yml:

author:
  name: John Doe
  twitter: johndoetwitter
  picture: /assets/images/johndoe.png

Site-wide author information can be overridden in a documents YAML Front Matter in the same way:

author:
  name: Jane Doe
  twitter: janedoetwitter
  picture: /assets/images/janedoe.png

Or by specifying a corresponding key in the documents YAML Front Matter, that exists in site.data.authors. E.g., you have the following in the documents YAML Front Matter:

author: megaman

And you have the following in _data/authors.yml:

megaman:
  name: Mega Man
  twitter: megamantwitter
  picture: /assets/images/megaman.png

drlight:
  name: Dr. Light
  twitter: drlighttwitter
  picture: /assets/images/drlight.png

Currently author.picture is only used in layout: about. Recommended size is 300 x 300 pixels.

Reading Time

To enable reading time counts add read_time: true to a post or pages YAML Front Matter.

Comments (via Disqus)

Optionally, if you have a Disqus account, you can show a comments section below each post.

To enable Disqus comments, add your Disqus shortname to your projects _config.yml file:

  disqus:
    shortname: my_disqus_shortname

Comments are enabled by default and will only appear in production when built with the following environment value: JEKYLL_ENV=production

If you dont want to display comments for a particular post you can disable them by adding comments: false to that posts YAML Front Matter.

Google Analytics

To enable Google Analytics, add your tracking ID to _config.yml like so:

  google_analytics: UA-NNNNNNNN-N

Similar to comments, the Google Analytics tracking script will only appear in production when using the following environment value: JEKYLL_ENV=production.

Layouts

This theme provides the following layouts, which you can use by setting the layout Front Matter on each page, like so:

---
layout: name
---

layout: default

This layout handles all of the basic page scaffolding placing the page content between the masthead and footer elements. All other layouts inherit this one and provide additional styling and features inside of the {{ content }} block.

layout: post

This layout accommodates the following YAML Front Matter:

# optional alternate title to replace page.title at the top of the page
alt_title: "Basically Basic"

# optional sub-title below the page title
sub_title: "The name says it all"

# optional intro text below titles, Markdown allowed
introduction: |
    Basically Basic is a Jekyll theme meant to be a substitute for the default `jekyll new` theme --- [Minima](https://github.com/jekyll/minima). Conventions and features found in Minima are fully supported by **Basically Basic**.

# optional call to action links
actions:
  - label: "Learn More"
    icon: github  # references name of svg icon, see full list below
    url: "http://url-goes-here.com"
  - label: "Download"
    icon: download  # references name of svg icon, see full list below
    url: "http://url-goes-here.com"

image:  # URL to a hero image associated with the post (e.g., /assets/page-pic.jpg)

# post specific author data if different from what is set in _config.yml 
author:
  name: John Doe
  twitter: johndoetwitter

comments: false  # disable comments on this post

layout: page

Visually this layout looks and acts the same as layout: post, with two minor differences.

  • Author “by line” and publish date are omitted.
  • Disqus comments are omitted.

layout: home

This layout accommodates the same YAML Front Matter as layout: page, with the addition of the following:

paginate: true  # enables pagination loop, see section above for additional setup

layout: about

This layout accommodates the same YAML Front Matter as layout: page, with the addition of the following to display an author picture:

author:
  name: John Doe
  picture /assets/images/johndoe.png

Recommended picture size is approximately 300 x 300 pixels. If author object is not explicitly set in the about pages YAML Front Matter the theme will default to the value set in _config.yml.

If blank there no image will appear.

layout: cv

This layout accommodates the same YAML Front Matter as layout: page. It leverages a JSON-based file standard for resume data to conveniently render a curriculum vitæ or resume painlessly.

Simply use JSON Resumes in-browser resume builder to export a JSON file and save to your project as _data/cv.json.

Customization

The default structure, style, and scripts of this theme can be overridden and customized in the following two ways.

Overriding Includes and Layouts

Theme defaults can be overridden by placing a file with the same name into your projects _includes or _layouts directory. For instance:

  • To specify a custom style path or meta data to the _includes/head.html file, create an _includes directory in your project, copy _includes/head.html from Basically Basics gem folder to <your_project>/_includes and start editing that file.

ProTip: to locate the themes files on your computer run bundle show jekyll-theme-basically-basic. This returns the location of the gem-based theme files.

Customizing Sass (SCSS)

To override the default Sass (located in themes _sass directory), do one of the following:

  1. Copy directly from the Basically Basic gem
  • Go to your local Basically Basic gem installation directory (run bundle show jekyll-theme-basically-basic to get the path to it).
  • Copy the contents of /assets/stylesheets/main.scss from there to <your_project>.
  • Customize want you want inside <your_project>/assets/stylesheets/main.scss.
  1. Copy from this repo.
  • Copy the contents of assets/stylesheets/main.scss to <your_project>.
  • Customize want you want inside <your_project/assets/stylesheets/main.scss.

Note: To make more extensive changes and customize the Sass partials bundled in the gem. You will need to copy the complete contents the _sass directory to <your_project> due to the way Jekyll currently reads those files.

To make basic tweaks to themes style Sass variables can be overridden by adding to <your_project>/assets/stylesheets/main.scss. For instance, to change the accent color used throughout the theme add:

$accent-color: red;

Before any @import lines.

Customizing JavaScript

To override the default JavaScript bundled in the theme, do one of the following:

  1. Copy directly from the Basically Basic gem
  • Go to your local Basically Basic gem installation directory (run bundle show jekyll-theme-basically-basic to get the path to it).
  • Copy the contents of /assets/javascripts/main.js from there to <your_project>.
  • Customize what you want inside <your_project>/assets/javascripts/main.js.
  1. Copy from this repo.
  • Copy the contents of assets/javascripts/main.js to <your_project>.
  • Customize what you want inside <your_project>/assets/javascripts/main.js.

SVG Icons

The theme uses social network logos and other iconography saved as SVGs for performance and flexibility. Said SVGs are located in the _includes directory and prefixed with icon-. Each icon has been sized and designed to fit a 16 x 16 viewbox and optimized with SVGO.

Fill colors are defined in the _sass/basically-basic/_icons.scss partial and set with .icon-name where class name matches the corresponding icon.

For example the Twitter icon is given a fill color of #1da1f2 like so:

<span class="icon icon--twitter">{% include icon-twitter.svg %}</span>

Alongside the SVG assets, there are icon helper includes to aid in generating social network links.

Include Parameter Description Required
username Username on given social network Required
label Text used for hyperlink Optional, defaults to username

For example, the following icon-github.html include:

{% include icon-github.html username=jekyll label='GitHub' %}

Will output the following HTML:

<a href="https://github.com/jekyll">
  <span class="icon icon--github"><svg viewBox="0 0 16 16" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" stroke-linejoin="round" stroke-miterlimit="1.414"><path d="M8 0C3.58 0 0 3.582 0 8c0 3.535 2.292 6.533 5.47 7.59.4.075.547-.172.547-.385 0-.19-.007-.693-.01-1.36-2.226.483-2.695-1.073-2.695-1.073-.364-.924-.89-1.17-.89-1.17-.725-.496.056-.486.056-.486.803.056 1.225.824 1.225.824.714 1.223 1.873.87 2.33.665.072-.517.278-.87.507-1.07-1.777-.2-3.644-.888-3.644-3.953 0-.873.31-1.587.823-2.147-.09-.202-.36-1.015.07-2.117 0 0 .67-.215 2.2.82.64-.178 1.32-.266 2-.27.68.004 1.36.092 2 .27 1.52-1.035 2.19-.82 2.19-.82.43 1.102.16 1.915.08 2.117.51.56.82 1.274.82 2.147 0 3.073-1.87 3.75-3.65 3.947.28.24.54.73.54 1.48 0 1.07-.01 1.93-.01 2.19 0 .21.14.46.55.38C13.71 14.53 16 11.53 16 8c0-4.418-3.582-8-8-8"></path></svg></span>
