How to Use

For those unfamiliar with how Jekyll works, check out https://jekyllrb.com/ for all the details, or read up on just the basics of front matter, writing posts, and creating pages.

Quickstart

In order to not blow up your computer handling a system wide Ruby installation, it is advised that you use RVM. Once you've got that installed and configured, get the latest version of Ruby with:

$ rvm install 2.4.2

Select that version and then create an isolated gemset with:

$ rvm use 2.4.2
$ rvm gemset create autonomic

Then you can get your Ruby dependencies installed with:

$ gem install jekyll bundler

And serve the website locally with:

$ jekyll serve

You can edit content in the .md files under src and src/_posts.

When you're hacking later on (or in a new shell), you'll need to run:

$ rvm use 2.4.2
$ rvm gemset use autonomic

And then you'll have access to the environment.

A big, modern, blocky affair with a mobile-style menu, fully responsive styling,
and an assortment of pre-styled elements. So, pretty much what you were expecting
-- except, of course, for how it's put together, specifically:

- It's built on Skel 3*, a leaner, more modular rewrite of my responsive framework.

  (* = still in development as of this writing)

- It uses flexbox*, which eliminates all kinds of terrible hacks and clunky layout
  stopgaps (like CSS grid systems).

  (* = not supported on IE8/9, but non-flexbox fallbacks are included)

- It uses Sass* a lot more intelligently, thanks in part to several new mixins
  and functions I've been working on (as well as a few by @HugoGiraudel).

  (* = still entirely optional if you prefer vanilla CSS :)

- A ton of other stuff.

In short, Spectral's the culmination of several new things I'm working on/trying out,
so please, let me know what you think :)
