Minimal is the new cool.

If there's any issue you are facing in setting up this theme I'm there for you. Just create an issue in this repository (http://github.com/hemangsk/Gravity), (https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-issue/) and I'll get back to you asap.

INSTALLATION

Dependencies

Gravity uses Jekyll and it's built-in SCSS compiler for the associated CSS, so the first thing you'll need is Jekyll itself:

$ gem install jekyll

In case you don't have the bundler gem installed already, you can install it as follows:

$ gem install bundler

For pagination, Gravity uses the jekyll-paginate gem :

$ gem install jekyll-paginate

---

Usage

Once you have the required gems, you can go ahead and clone the Gravity repository or download a zip of the master branch.

Run :

$ jekyll serve

Jekyll should now be generating your content!

Adding posts

The theme by default ships with starter posts located in _posts/. Delete these posts and add your content to the _posts folder to see them being served up by Jekyll. This would be a good guide to getting started on writing posts using Jekyll. We've added a concise guide below:

• Create a .markdown file inside _posts folder.
• Name the file according to the format YY-MM-DD-[short name for your post].
• 2016-03-30-i-love-design.markdown
• Write the Front Matter and content in the file.

layout: post | default | page
title: String POST TITLE
date: Time Stamp
categories: String | Array of Strings CATEGORY / CATEGORIES
