Changing the Theme
I offer a template for getting started that comes pre-configured with the Just the Docs theme. This is a great theme, but admittedly it doesn’t cover every use-case under the sun (such as having a good blog). For this reason, you may want to change your theme to something like Jekyll Doc Theme or something similar.
To do this, change the remote_theme member in the _config.yml file to whatever theme you would like (including the GitHub username of the person who manages the theme) and get rid of any of the theme-specific members of the template, like the aux_links, color_scheme, and logo members.
