K I K O F R I

Kikofri is a theme for Jekyll that's a fork of the Kiko theme It came about because I like my themes like I like my music: ugly, old and barren. It's an assortment of hacks filtered through web-design choices from the turn of the millennium.

More information about the theme and it's quirks can be found here. A lot of stuff has changed since the last update, 'Kikofri Classic' if you will. Even more importantly, a lot of junk got dumped and other junk got simplified.

You'll see it undead here.

To do:

• What amounts to "bug-fixes", not much else
• Listen to Good Friendly Violent Fun by Exodus

How to:

1. Fork or clone this repository,
2. Run it: jekyll s
3. If that doesn't work see General pointers.

General pointers:

• If you use GitHub you might want to add gh-pages in the Gemfile in addition to consulting the Jekyll documentation.
• Various stuff, like indentation with µµ, can be used. µ#[somelink][someref]#µ creates Wikipedia-Style references. I call these liquid tweaks micros.
• Tags can be sorted first under /tags by making the first letter an Upper-case one in the post's front matter
  • To sort something last make the first letter a lower-case one
  • To just sort tags alphabetically use only upper- or lower-case letter consistently throughout posts

Make it a little less ugly:

1. Change the name and modify nav at _config.yml.
2. Make some appropriate changes — or inappropriate if you're into those kind of things — in about.md.
3. Navigate to the _posts directory and remove the example content by writing rm * in your terminal window. (Make sure that you're in the right folder) Might want to do the same under assets/images.
   • While you're at it create a post under _posts/REAL-DA-TE.md with some front matter similar to this:

   title:       "Friends Don't Lie."
   description: "No more."
   author:      "Eleven"
   layout:      post
   

4. Type away! Reject my reality and substitute your own!

Want to contribute?

There's no "protocol" for contributing. Noticed that some people actually forked this repository/theme, I always found that to be unlikely. Anyway, there is some room for improvement. So here it goes:

• Contributions are appreciated.
• Keep it ugly.
• When possible keep line length to 79 characters per line, like the recommendations for Python Code.
