How to install/use

In order to get this super fantastic Jekyll powered template for Artists follow this simple step:

• Then run in your terminal $ gem install jekyll
• Move/cd to a folder, always in your terminal, in which you want to insert the Artists-Theme
• Run git clone https://github.com/DevTips/Artists-Theme.git
• Then cd Artists-Theme
• jekyll serve --watch or 'jekyll build --watch', optional parameter: '--force_polling'
• DONE

Isn't it fantastic?

Learn how to use Jekyll on windows (if that's your thing :)

// Run Jekyll without errors: No BOM allowed If there are BOM header characters in your UTF-8-encoded files, Jekyll will break. Make sure there are none.

Set your encoding to UTF-8 Depending on the version of Ruby and/or Jekyll you’re using, your site’s content, and maybe other factors, you may need to make sure Jekyll will read your site’s source as UTF-8.

If you followed this guide step by step or if your versions match the ones in this guide, you shouldn’t need to use any of the following fixes.

Set encoding option Since Jekyll v1.3.0, you can specify the encoding in your _config.yml:

encoding: utf-8 Change console encoding Alternatively, you can change your command line tool’s encoding to UTF-8 by running the following command every time you open a new console window.

chcp 65001 Use subfolders Jekyll cannot build or serve sites from certain system-reserved folders on Windows, like your user folder. Instead, it will output an error looking like this:

C:\Users\You>jekyll serve Configuration file: C:\Users\You_config.yml Source: C:\Users\You Destination: C:\Users\You_site Generating... jekyll 2.4.0 | Error: Permission denied - . If you encounter such an error, move your site to a subdirectory (e.g., C:\Users\You\awesome-jekyll-site) and try again.

jekyll build jekyll build --watch jekyll build -w jekyll serve jekyll serve --watch jekyll serve -w
