This maintenance release includes various quality-of-life improvements when using the gem-based version of the theme.

Added

  • Hydejack now uses additional Jekyll plugins by default, which make working with GitHub more convenient.
    They have been added to the Gemfile and _config.yml.
    Note that existing users need to update their _config.yml:

    gems:
  - jekyll-default-layout # new
  - jekyll-feed
  - jekyll-optional-front-matter # new
  - jekyll-paginate
  - jekyll-redirect-from
  - jekyll-relative-links # new
  - jekyll-sitemap

  • Added licenses folder that includes the full license texts of licenses mentioned in NOTICE.md.

  • You can, once again, define the author in _config.yml.
    Using _data/authors.yml is still recommended (and takes precedence),
    but this option is more convenient when setting up a quick (project-) page using the gem-based theme.
    Also, a mini-version of _data/social.yml can be provided as part _config.yml, e.g.:

    author:
  social:
    github: https://github.com/qwtel/hydejack
    npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/hydejack
    download: https://github.com/qwtel/hydejack/archive/v6.5.0.zip

data_social:
  github:
    name: GitHub
    icon: icon-github
  npm:
    name: npm
    icon: icon-npm
  download:
    name: Download
    icon: icon-box-add

  • A download icon has been added to the default icon font and _data/social.yml has been updated.

  • Added _includes/my-scripts.html, _sass/my-inline.scss and _sass/my-style.scss to make it easier to add custom scripts and styles without modifying the source. This is especially handy when using the gem-based version of the theme.

Changed

  • Loading web fonts now starts earlier and content download no longer blocks
    swapping out the fallback font for the new font.
    Previously, a page containing lots of images could have delayed displaying the web fonts significantly.
  • The home layout no longer contains a message suggesting that you don't use it.
  • The home layout now shows up to 5 blog posts and up to 5 pages blow the regular content.
  • The version history has been moved from docs/<version>/versions.md to CHANGELOG.md.
  • The license notices have been moved from docs/<version>/licenses.md to NOTICE.md.
  • Updated gem and npm dependencies

Design

  • The default font has been changed from "Noto Serif" to "Noto Sans".
    If you have a font entry in _config.yml, this will have no effect.
  • nap.jpg is no longer used as default background image in the gem-based theme.
  • The sidebar content width is now limited to the width of the sidebar (this only effects large screens).
  • Project cards and pagination buttons now have slightly rounded borders for a less "rigid" look.

How to restore the old styles

If you would like to use the old font, add the following to _config.yml:

font_heading: "'Roboto Slab', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"
font:         "'Noto Serif', Georgia, serif"
google_fonts: "Roboto+Slab:700|Noto+Serif:400,400i,700,700i"

If you were relying on the default setting for the background image, add the following to _config.yml:

image: /hydejack/assets/img/nap.jpg

Note that you have to replace /hydejack with your baseurl.

To restore the old sidebar, open (or create) _sass/my-inline.scss and add the following:

@media screen { .sidebar-sticky { left: 2rem; max-width: none; } }

To remove the border radius, open (or create) _sass/my-inline.scss and add the following:

.card, .pagination-item { border-radius: 0!important; }
