About

Dumbarton is a Jekyll Theme developed by Tyler Butler. The theme is designed for academics and features a simple home page with an about me section, a blog, and an interactive highlights section to describe publications, coursework, courses taught, and projects. UI design with Bootstrap and Animate CSS.

A Note on Compatability

At this time, this theme is not compatible with GitHub pages because GitHub does not support jekyll-scholar.

Installation

Follow the following instructions to install the Dumbarton theme:

  1. Clone the repo.
    git clone https://github.com/tcbutler320/Jekyll-Theme-Dumbarton.git
    cd Jekyll-Theme-Dumbarton
  2. Use Bundler to install dependancies
    bundle install
  3. Start the Jekyll development server
    bundle exec jekyll serve

Setting Options

There are many settings available to users to change how the theme looks. These settings can be changed in _config.yml.
