Shade

Shade is a minimal theme for Ghost based on Solo.

Development

Edition styles are compiled using Gulp/PostCSS to polyfill future CSS spec. You'll need Node, Yarn and Gulp installed globally. After that, from the theme's root directory:

# Install
pnpm install

# Run build & watch for changes
pnpm dev

Now you can edit /assets/css/ files, which will be compiled to /assets/built/ automatically.

The zip Gulp task packages the theme files into dist/solo.zip, which you can then upload to your site.

pnpm zip
