Nameless fractals site based on the emerald theme
After extracting the content from the folder into the selected directory, you can type jekyll serve from the terminal, than open your browser to 0.0.0.0:4000/emerald/ and you will find it there.
Additionally it is possible to fork the repository and use Github Pages as hosting. By following this way it will be enough to change the baseurl value into the _config.yml file, with the directory name of your project (for example /blog) or simply with a "/" (slash) if you want install Emerald in the root.
Emerald has two branch:
master: is for developing pourpose.gh-pages: is only for demo site.
Emerald was thought to be used mainly with Github, in particular into project site. For this reason several tags have been included {{ site.baseurl }} to refer to the "/emerald/" directory.
You can change the "baseurl" value into the config.yml file, to match your directory (for example "/blog/") or the root of your project. In that case you must set the "baseurl" value to "/".
To maintain the vertical rhythm, it has been applied a Typographic scale as a modular scale, with a baseline set to 24px. To maintain this rhythm you need to insert elements like image, video or other contents with a 24px (or multiple) height as refer.
Last but not least: the Jekyll documentation is the best starting point!
