Structure
Nothing clever here . Layouts, data files, and includes are all placed in their default locations. Stylesheets and scripts in assets
, and a few development related files in the project’s root directory.
Please note: If you installed Minimal Mistakes via the Ruby Gem method, theme files like _layouts
, _includes
, _sass
, and /assets/
will be missing. This is normal as they are bundled with the minimal-mistakes-jekyll
Ruby gem.
