Development

Clone the repo and git checkout the develop branch. master is reserved for GitHub Pages deployments.

You'll need Ruby, Jekyll, and Node set up on your development machine.

Edit the homepage at _layouts/default.html.

The pages are generated by markdown files: ballot.md, locations.md, and register.md.

Run the site locally using npm start. That should build the assets and serve the site locally on port 3000.

Pages

The home page is located under index.md file. To change the content or design you have to edit the default.html file in _layouts folder.

In order to add a new page, create a new html or markdown file under root directory or inside _pages folder. To add a link in navigation add it in _config.yml:

# THEME SETTINGS
navigation: # Navigation links
  - {name: 'Home', link: '/'}
  - {name: 'About', link: '/about'}
  - {name: 'Contact', link: '/contact'}

name is the text that will be shown and link, well, it's a link.

Development

To set up your environment to develop this theme, run bundle install and npm install.

The theme is setup just like a normal Jekyll site! Check out file structure overview for details. To test the theme, run gulp and open your browser at http://localhost:3000. This starts a Jekyll server using the theme. Add pages, documents, data, etc. like normal to test the theme's contents. As you make modifications to the theme and to the content, your site will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh, just like normal.
