Building Theme

Each theme we build will have a common command that will be used to build any assets such as CSS, JS, or IMG that the theme needs. Go into the ghost-local/content/themes/<your theme name> directory and run

# ensure dev deps are installed
npm i
# build assets
npm run build::assets

You can also run the Theme Building script in watch mode

npm run build::assets -- development

This will constantly rebuild the CSS, JS, and IMG for the theme any time a file in the source directories change.
