Gemified Theme -- Alpha Release

Monday, Jan 1, 0001

Jekyll themes distributed as Ruby gems are finally here to make installing and upgrading much easier. Gone are the days of forking a repo just to “install it”. Or dealing with merge conflicts when pulling in upstream commits to “upgrade it”.

If you’re interested in testing out Minimal Mistakes as a gemified theme read on. There are a few caveats though:

  1. Support for a theme assets folder was recently added to Jekyll core , but has yet to be released or rolled into the github-pages gem. Meaning you can’t use Minimal Mistakes as a Ruby gem there just yet… locally served or self-hosted installs should be fine if you don’t mind using a pre-release version of Jekyll.
  2. Windows users can’t currently use themes packaged as gems due to a bug with file paths in Jekyll core. This is being worked on so hopefully a fix is on the way soon.

Fine with all that? Great. Let’s continue.

Gemified Theme -- Beta Release

Monday, Jan 1, 0001

Hot on the heels of Jekyll v3.3.0 is a beta release of Minimal Mistakes… as a gemified theme.

minimal-mistakes-jekyll can only be used with Jekyll proper. If you’re hosting on GitHub Pages or using that gem the theme won’t work. 3rd party themes haven’t been white-listed so it’s a no go for now.

Fine with all that? Great. Let’s continue.

If you’re migrating a site already using Minimal Mistakes and haven’t customized any of the _includes, _layouts, _sass partials, or assets this should be quick and painless.
