-> CSS
), simply run:
gulp build
in Terminal.
Then use
gulp watch
This command builds the site locally on port 3000, with Browsersync so you can quickly revise design changes.
Preview your site with browser reload at localhost:3000 Use the address localhost:3001 for additional features like grid preview, CSS highlighting, and more during development.
Editing
Posts
- Add, update, or remove a post in the Posts collection.
- Change the defaults when new posts are created in
_posts/_defaults.md
.
Collections
To display products, Supply uses a collection called product
You will find a series of product samples in the _products
collection folder. By design, all the products are on display on the home page, in Supply, that is ìndex.html
. You can manually create pages based on this index to sort your products or any other collection by custom variable.
You can also add your products in regular posts, using the Gumroad overlay, embed, and hyperlinks method, thanks to an include snippet.
Write something like:
<a href="https://gum.co/supply class="no-underline pv2 grow db"><img class="w-100" src="/images/screenshot.png"></a>
{% include gumroad-overlay.html id="supply" %}
to display a clickable image of your product, with an overlay like this:
