- Realsimple is a clean, simple, (mostly) one page theme for Jekyll. Post links navigate away from the main page, but all other navigation uses fullpage.js.
Note: this gem is not supported by GitHub Pages. If you would like to use this theme with GitHub Pages, you can clone the repository [https://github.com/suzmas/realsimple-theme-demo] here and change the configuration as needed.
If you find any bugs or have suggestions for improving this theme, please let me know via a Github issue.
Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile:
gem "realsimple-theme"And add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml:
theme: realsimple-themeAnd then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install realsimple-theme
Your config.yaml file should include definitions for author, author_title, twitter_url, linkedin_url, and github_url in order for the homepage links to work correctly.
Available layouts: default, default-nofp, home, page, post. Default uses the fullpage.js wrapper, while default-nofp does not.
The homepage layout cycles through your site's files that use the 'page' layout in the order they are organized in your directory- and creates a section on the homepage to display their content. The last section of the homepage displays links and snippets of your recent posts.
Files defined with layout 'post' use the 'default-nofp' layout by default.
You'll need to define 'page_str:' in the front-matter of all files using the page layout- page strings should follow the format of Fullpage.js section links--> firstPage, secondPage, 3rdpage, 4thpage. See https://github.com/suzmas/realsimple-theme/tree/master/example for an example.
Fullpage.js is initialized with four sections for a landing section, about section, portfolio section, and posts section. To set up this navigation style, add "page_str: secondPage" to the About.md front-matter. Create a file with title "Portfolio" and add "page_str: 3rdpage". The post snippets page is the last section by default.
If you add additional files that use the 'page' layout, you'll need to create an _assets folder with a file called fullpg.js and modify the 'anchors' settings. You can see an example of fullpage.js setup for this theme at: https://github.com/suzmas/realsimple-theme/tree/master/example.
