Using Tufte features in a different theme #81

Open Rhizomyx opened 3 years ago

Rhizomyx commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I am a total noob and I would like to use some of the core Tufte features (e.g. marginnotes) in a different Jekyll theme which also has a side column.

What would be the steps to port these features smoothly?

I've done this in a theme I made (https://github.com/EricMFink/akademicky). I forked this repo, then copied the relevant stuff (_plugins folder; tufte.scss; Gemfile; Rakefile; .config.yml) into my theme's repo..

Not sure if that's the easiest way. But it works.
