Basically Basic can now be installed remotely for use on GitHub Pages!

The days of having to forking this repo and manually manage updates are over. Simply install the jekyll-remote-theme plugin by doing the following and away you go.

1. If you’ve previously forked this repo start by removing _layouts, _includes, _sass, assets/javascripts, and assets/stylesheets. Be sure to leave any files that you’ve customized so they override the versions bundled in the theme.

2. In your Gemfile replace gem "jekyll" with the following:

   gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins
   gem "jekyll-remote-theme"
   

3. Run bundle update and verify that all gems install properly.

4. Add remote_theme: "mmistakes/jekyll-theme-basically-basic" to your _config.yml file.

5. Then add jekyll-remote-theme to the plugins (previously gems) array in your _config.yml file like so:

   plugins:
     - jekyll-remote-theme
