如何在新的Jekyll站点中修复丢失的目录

Question

I finally got all my Ruby issues squared away and have Jekyll installed. When I run jekyll new sitename it creates a new Jekyll project and doesn't show any errors, but the project is missing several directories including _includes , _layouts , _sass .

When I browse to the site on my localhost, however, it shows a working site. The _site folder has a CSS file in the assets folder.

Every tutorial I've seen shows that those missing directories I list above should be created when the project is initialized, but this is my first time working with Jekyll, so I can't tell if I'm missing something.

Does anyone know what would cause the site to be incomplete or for these directories to be hidden?

Answer 1

Jekyll 3.2.0 introduced gem based themes :

Our flagship feature for this release has been themes. Themes?!, you say? Yes, proper, versionable, releasable, first-class themes. We're pretty stoked about it and we hope you like building and using them. For now, it only supports layouts, includes, and sass, but we have plans to include static assets like images and CSS/JS in a future release.

That basically means that by default you won't have these typical directories:

/assets
/_layouts
/_includes
/_sass

But you can always overwrite them or copy to your jekyll instance to modify them .
