Installation

It's recommended that you install Blumen with the gridsome create command, so that Gridsome removes the .git folder and installs NPM dependencies for you:

gridsome create my-website https://github.com/emilol/gridsome-starter-blumen.git

Alternatively, you can clone this repo and set it up manually:

git clone https://github.com/emilol/gridsome-starter-blumen.git my-website

# navigate to the directory
cd my-website

# remove the Git folder
rm -rf .git

# install NPM dependencies
npm install

Configuration

See the configuration notes in the Getting Started demo post.

Development

Run gridsome develop to start a local development server, or gridsome build to build the static site into the dist folder.

See the Gridsome docs for more information.
