Poole is the butler for [Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com), the static site generator. It's designed and developed by [@mdo](https://twitter.com/mdo) to provide a clear and concise foundational setup for any Jekyll site. It does so by furnishing a full vanilla Jekyll install with example templates, pages, posts, and styles.

## Usage
-### 1. Install Jekyll
+### 1. Install dependencies
-Poole is built for use with Jekyll, so naturally you'll need to install that. On Macs, it's rather straightforward:
+Poole is built on Jekyll and uses it's built-in SCSS compiler to generate our CSS. Before getting started, you'll need to install the Jekyll gem:
```bash
$ gem install jekyll
**Windows users:** Windows users have a bit more work to do, but luckily [@juthilo](https://github.com/juthilo) has your back with his [Run Jekyll on Windows](https://github.com/juthilo/run-jekyll-on-windows) guide.
-You may also need to install Pygments, the Python syntax highlighter for code snippets that plays nicely with Jekyll. Read more about this [in the Jekyll docs](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/templates/#code_snippet_highlighting).
+**Need syntax highlighting?** Poole includes support for Pygments or Rouge, so install your gem of choice to make use of the built-in styling. Read more about this [in the Jekyll docs](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/templates/#code_snippet_highlighting).
### 2a. Quick start
$ jekyll serve
```
-Open <http://localhost:4000> in your browser, and voilĂ . You're done.

+### 4. Serving it up
+
+If you host your code on GitHub, you can use [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com) to host your project.
+
+1. Fork this repo and switch to the `gh-pages` branch.
+ 1. If you're [using a custom domain name](https://help.github.com/articles/setting-up-a-custom-domain-with-github-pages), modify the `CNAME` file to point to your new domain.
+ 2. If you're not using a custom domain name, **modify the `baseurl` in `_config.yml`** to point to your GitHub Pages URL. Example: for a repo at `github.com/username/poole`, use `http://username.github.io/poole/`. **Be sure to include the trailing slash.**
+3. Done! Head to your GitHub Pages URL or custom domain.
+
+No matter your production or hosting setup, be sure to verify the `baseurl` option file and `CNAME` settings. Not applying this correctly can mean broken styles on your site.
