Quixote

Installing a new theme requires Composer

Setup new theme

1. composer create-project alpineio/quixote theme-name creates a new copy of the Quixote composer project with base boilerplate.
2. cd theme-name
3. vendor/bin/rocinante theme:regen "Super Awesome Theme" ./ renames Alpine.IO's base Underscores theme in the current directory.

Compiling CSS and JavaScript

Bootstrap uses gulp with convenient methods for working with the framework. It's how we compile our code, run tests, and more. To use it, install the required dependencies as directed and then run some gulp commands.

Install Gulp

From the command line:

1. Install gulp-cli globally with npm install -g gulp-cli.
2. Navigate to the root, then run npm install. npm will look at package.json and automatically install the necessary local dependencies listed there.

When completed, you'll be able to run the various gulp commands provided from the command line.

Unfamiliar with npm? Don't have node installed? That's a-okay. npm stands for node packaged modules and is a way to manage development dependencies through node.js. Download and install node.js before proceeding.
