Development
To set up your environment to develop this theme, run bundle install.
A modern devcontainer configuration for VSCode is included.
Your theme is set up just like a normal Jekyll site! To test your theme, run bundle exec jekyll serve and open your browser at http://localhost:4000. This starts a Jekyll server using your theme. Add pages, documents, data, etc. like normal to test your theme's contents. As you make modifications to your theme and to your content, your site will regenerate and you should see the changes in the browser after a refresh, just like normal.
When the theme is released, only the files in _layouts, _includes, and _sass tracked with Git will be released.
