Solo is a minimal theme for Ghost focused on showcasing the work of an individual writer or creator. This theme is highly customizable, with a few simple settings that allow you to quickly apply your own personal style to your site.

Demo: https://solo.ghost.io

Instructions

1. Download this theme
2. Log into Ghost, and go to the Design settings area to upload the zip file

Development

Styles are compiled using Gulp/PostCSS to polyfill future CSS spec. You'll need Node, pnpm and Gulp installed globally. After that, from the theme's root directory:

# Install
pnpm install

# Run build & watch for changes
pnpm dev

Now you can edit /assets/css/ files, which will be compiled to /assets/built/ automatically.

The zip Gulp task packages the theme files into dist/solo.zip, which you can then upload to your site.

pnpm zip
