Quick version

Create a new GitHub repository by importing or forking this repo.

Edit the _config.yml with your collection and repository info.

Look at docs/metadata-template.csv for the metadata template, and docs/metadata-info.csv for metadata guidelines.

Create your metadata following the template and drop it into _data folder replacing metadata.csv.

Edit the _data/metadata-config.csv to choose the order and display name for the metadata fields. The fields will display in the order given in the csv, and will use the "display-name" value. Fields not included here will not be displayed.

Put your objects (jpgs or pdfs) in objects folder, ensuring that they match the filename column of your metadata. For the easiest set up, the filename should match the indexid + file extension.

Create thumbs for your objects in the objects/thumbnails folder, ensuring they match the pattern indexid_sm.jpg.

Edit the home page text.
