Page layouts jekyll's blog
2020-04-12 - Kovacs J Giulia
Layouts are templates that wrap around your content. They live in a directory called _layouts in the root.
These layouts would be override the Minima-theme layouts.
Create your first layout at _layouts/default.html with the following content:
---
layout: default # we get Minima's default
---
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>{{ page.title } }</title>
</head>
<body>
{{ content } }
</body>
</html>
Reused from Minima's „default” layout
K.i.s.s. & write:
---
layout: default # Minima
---
{{ content } }
To have index.html use this layout, you can set a layout variable in front matter. The layout wraps around the content of the page so all you need in index.html is:
---
layout: mydefault
title: Home
---
<h1>{{ "k.i.s.s." | capitalize } }</h1>
<p>
Keep it simple stupid.
</p>
We have a reusable code yet. We are able to create a new about file in the root directory with a few lines. The about.md 's code is:
---
layout: mydefault
title: About
---
# About page
This page tells you a little bit about me. They have a short text.
