+# just-the-docs-template
+
+This is a *bare-minimum* template to create a [Jekyll] site that:
+
+- uses the [Just the Docs] theme;
+- can be built and published on [GitHub Pages];
+- can be built and previewed locally, and published on other platforms.
+
+More specifically, the created site:
+
+- uses a gem-based approach, i.e. uses a `Gemfile` and loads the `just-the-docs` gem;
+- uses the [GitHub Pages / Actions workflow] to build and publish the site on GitHub Pages.
+
+To get started with creating a site, simply:
+
+1. click "[use this template]" to create a GitHub repository
+2. go to Settings > Pages > Build and deployment > Source, and select GitHub Actions
+
+If you want to maintain your docs in the `docs` directory of an existing project repo, see [Hosting your docs from an existing project repo](#hosting-your-docs-from-an-existing-project-repo).
+
+After completing the creation of your new site on GitHub, update it as needed:
+
+## Replace the content of the template pages
+
+Update the following files to your own content:
+
+- `index.md` (your new home page)
+- `README.md` (information for those who access your site repo on GitHub)
+
+## Changing the version of the theme and/or Jekyll
+
+Simply edit the relevant line(s) in the `Gemfile`.
+
+## Adding a plugin
+
+The Just the Docs theme automatically includes the [`jekyll-seo-tag`] plugin.
+
+To add an extra plugin, you need to add it in the `Gemfile` *and* in `_config.yml`. For example, to add [`jekyll-default-layout`]:
+
+- Add the following to your site's `Gemfile`:
+
+  ```ruby
+  gem "jekyll-default-layout"
+  ```
+
+- And add the following to your site's `_config.yml`:
+
+  ```yaml
+  plugins:
+    - jekyll-default-layout
+  ```
+
+Note: If you are using a Jekyll version less than 3.5.0, use the `gems` key instead of `plugins`.
+
+## Publishing your site on GitHub Pages
+
+1.  If your created site is `YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-SITE-NAME`, update `_config.yml` to:
+
+    ```yaml
+    title: YOUR TITLE
+    description: YOUR DESCRIPTION
+    theme: just-the-docs
+
+    url: https://YOUR-USERNAME.github.io/YOUR-SITE-NAME
+
+    aux_links: # remove if you don't want this link to appear on your pages
+      Template Repository: https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-SITE-NAME
+    ```
+
+2.  Push your updated `_config.yml` to your site on GitHub.
+
+3.  In your newly created repo on GitHub:
+    - go to the `Settings` tab -> `Pages` -> `Build and deployment`, then select `Source`: `GitHub Actions`.
+    - if there were any failed Actions, go to the `Actions` tab and click on `Re-run jobs`.
+
+## Building and previewing your site locally
+
+Assuming [Jekyll] and [Bundler] are installed on your computer:
+
+1.  Change your working directory to the root directory of your site.
+
+2.  Run `bundle install`.
+
+3.  Run `bundle exec jekyll serve` to build your site and preview it at `localhost:4000`.
+
+    The built site is stored in the directory `_site`.
+
+## Publishing your built site on a different platform
+
+Just upload all the files in the directory `_site`.
+
+## Customization
+
+You're free to customize sites that you create with this template, however you like!
+
+[Browse our documentation][Just the Docs] to learn more about how to use this theme.
+
+## Hosting your docs from an existing project repo
+
+You might want to maintain your docs in an existing project repo. Instead of creating a new repo using the [just-the-docs template](https://github.com/just-the-docs/just-the-docs-template), you can copy the template files into your existing repo and configure the template's Github Actions workflow to build from a `docs` directory. You can clone the template to your local machine or download the `.zip` file to access the files.
+
+### Copy the template files
+
+1.  Create a `.github/workflows` directory at your project root if your repo doesn't already have one. Copy the `pages.yml` file into this directory. GitHub Actions searches this directory for workflow files.
+
+2.  Create a `docs` directory at your project root and copy all remaining template files into this directory.
+
+### Modify the GitHub Actions workflow
+
+The GitHub Actions workflow that builds and deploys your site to Github Pages is defined by the `pages.yml` file. You'll need to edit this file to that so that your build and deploy steps look to your `docs` directory, rather than the project root.
+
+1.  Set the default `working-directory` param for the build job.
+
+    ```yaml
+    build:
+      runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+      defaults:
+        run:
+          working-directory: docs
+    ```
+
+2.  Set the `working-directory` param for the Setup Ruby step.
+
+    ```yaml
+    - name: Setup Ruby
+        uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1
+        with:
+          ruby-version: '3.1'
+          bundler-cache: true
+          cache-version: 0
+          working-directory: '${{ github.workspace }}/docs'
+    ```
+
+3.  Set the path param for the Upload artifact step:
+
+    ```yaml
+    - name: Upload artifact
+        uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v1
+        with:
+          path: "docs/_site/"
+    ```
+
+4.  Modify the trigger so that only changes within the `docs` directory start the workflow. Otherwise, every change to your project (even those that don't affect the docs) would trigger a new site build and deploy.
+
+    ```yaml
+    on:
+      push:
+        branches:
+          - "main"
+        paths:
+          - "docs/**"
+    ```
