Getting started

This guide takes you from the downloaded zip to Livvic running on your computer.

Requirements

• Ruby. Livvic is built with Jekyll, which runs on Ruby. Follow the Jekyll installation guide for your system.
• Bundler. Install it with gem install bundler.
• A code editor. Any editor works. VS Code is a good free choice.

Install and run

Unzip the theme, open its folder in your terminal, and install the gems:

bundle install

Start the local server:

bundle exec jekyll serve

If it stops with cannot load such file -- csv, follow the Ruby 3.4 fix.

Open http://localhost:4000 in your browser. Most changes appear when you refresh. Restart the server after you change _config.yml.

What to change first

1. Set your details in Site settings.
2. Edit the home page sections.
3. Replace the sample services, portfolio and team.
4. Add your own blog posts.
