Requirements

Doks uses npm to centralize dependency management, making it [easy to update]({{< relref "how-to-update" >}}) resources, build tooling, plugins, and build scripts:

• Download and install Node.js (it includes npm) for your platform.

Start a new Doks project

Create a new site, change directories, install dependencies, and start development server.

Create a new site

Doks is available as a child theme, and a starter theme:

• Use the Doks child theme, if you do not plan to customize a lot, and/or need future Doks updates.
• Use the Doks starter theme, if you plan to customize a lot, and/or do not need future Doks updates.

Not quite sure? Use the Doks child theme.

Doks child theme

git clone https://github.com/h-enk/doks-child-theme.git my-doks-site

Doks starter theme

git clone https://github.com/h-enk/doks.git my-doks-site

Change directories
