How does one use this with jekyll? #6

I'm new to jekyll and the jekyll docs only cover how to use gem based themes. How would one make use of this theme? I reviewed the jekyll docs, did a few internet searches, but don't see a 'theme' directory mentioned anywhere or any info on how someone uses a non-gem theme.

To use the theme you download a copy of the code or make a fork of the repository. The theme is the code itself, it is a template Jekyll website. You need to customize the _config.yml, create your own posts in the /collections/_posts directory, and mess around with any other parts of the website you want to customize.

To run the website just run the command bundle exec jekyll serve in the base directory.
