Reverie is a Jekyll-powered theme which is simple and opinionated. It's actually a fork of jekyll-now with some additional features and personal touches which I've implemented to suit my needs for my blog.
This is a plug-and-play Jekyll theme best suited to use on GitHub Pages (or Cloudflare Pages if you want to have your repository private) without even setting up a local environment.

Setting up Reverie on GitHub Pages is as simple as it gets!
Fork this repository, then rename the repository to yourgithubusername.github.io
.
Alternatively, you can click the Use this template
button if you want to create a repository with a clean commit history which will use Reverie as a template.
Your Jekyll blog will often be viewable immediately at https://yourgithubusername.github.io (if it's not, you can often force it to build by completing step 2).
Enter your site name, description, avatar and many other options by editing the _config.yml
file. You can easily turn on Google Analytics tracking, Disqus commenting and social icons here.
Making a change to _config.yml
(or any file in your repository) will force GitHub Pages to rebuild your site with Jekyll. Your rebuilt site will be viewable a few seconds later at https://yourgithubusername.github.io - if not, give it ten minutes as GitHub suggests and it'll appear soon.
Delete all files from _posts
directory and create a new file called /_posts/2019-2-13-Hello-World.md
to publish your first blog post. That's all you need to do to publish your first blog post! This Markdown Cheatsheet might come in handy while writing the posts.
You can add additional posts in the browser on GitHub.com too! Just hit the Create new file button in
/_posts/
to create new content. Just make sure to include the front-matter block at the top of each new blog post and make sure the post's filename is in this format: year-month-day-title.md
You can categorize your content based on categories
in Reverie. For this, you just need to add categories
in front matter like below:
For adding single category:
categories: JavaScript
For adding multiple categories:
categories: [PHP, Laravel]
The categorized content can be shown over this URL: https://yourgithubusername.github.io/categories/
Pagination of posts in Reverie works out-of-the-box. You only need to specify the number of posts you want on a single page in _config.yml
and Reverie will take care of the rest.
paginate: 6
Reverie comes with a RSS feed in-built. The generated RSS Feed of your blog can be found at https://yourgithubusername.github.io/feed. You can see the example RSS feed over here.
The generated sitemap of your blog can be found at https://yourgithubusername.github.io/sitemap.xml. You can see the example sitemap feed over here.
Reverie is an emailware. Meaning, if you liked using this theme or it has helped you in any way, I'd like you send me an email at bullredeyes@gmail.com about anything you'd want to say about this software. I'd really appreciate it!
reverie - a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.
