## Welcome to the SRC folder for the Gohugo Theme. The contents of this folder are used to generate CSS and javascript. You may never have to touch anything here, unless you want to more deeply customize your styles. ## Tools ### NPM We use [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) for package managment The theme's `.gitignore` file should be kept intact to make sure that all files in the `node_modules` folder are not pushed to the repository. ### Webpack We use Webpack to manage our asset pipeline. Arguably, Webpack is overkill for this use-case, but we're using it here because once it's set up (which we've done for you), it's really easy to use. If you want to use an external script, just add it via Yarn, and reference it in main.js. You'll find instructions in the js/main.js file. ### PostCSS PostCSS is just CSS. You'll find `postcss.config.js` in the css folder. There you'll find that we're using [`postcss-import`](https://github.com/postcss/postcss-import) which allows us import css files directly from the node_modules folder, [`postcss-cssnext`](http://cssnext.io/features/) which gives us the power to use upcoming CSS features today. If you miss Sass you can find PostCss modules for those capabilities, too. ### Tachyons This theme uses the [Tachyons CSS Library](http://tachyons.io/). It's about 15kb gzipped, highly modular, and each class is atomic so you never have to worry about overwriting your styles. It's a great library for themes because you can make most all the style changes you need right in your layouts. ## How to Use You'll find the commands to run in `src/package.json`. For development, you'll need Node and Yarn installed: ``` $ cd themes/gohugo-theme/src/ $ yarn install $ npm start ``` This will process both the postcss and scripts. For production, instead of `npm start`, run `npm run build:production,` which will output minified versions of your files. --- To run the NPM "critical" from package.json, you first must run `hugo` from the root of the project to generate a `public` folder. Make critical better: - [ ] run for a wider variety of pages. It currently runs off the new Hugo home page, but should run for docs/themes. There's much shared between them though. - [ ] Minify the CSS. The critical script seems only to minify when running inline, which we don't want to do (because it would change the build process)
