Jekyll NavBar

In building a site powered by Jekyll and hosted by GitHub, I wanted the ability to highlight the current page's tab in the bar. I also wanted the bar to support second-level items (i.e. a dropdown), which proved somewhat tricky. This is the solution I arrived at after a few hours of fiddling around.

Construction

The contents of the navigation bar are contained in a data file located at _data/navigation.yml. This makes it accessible via the site-wide Liquid element {{ site.data.navigation}}. You can see the file for the formatting I used.

How it Works

Here is a high level overview for what you need to do to get most of an Android environment setup and maintained.

Prerequisites (for Homebrew at a minimum, lots of other tools need these too):

XCode is installed (via the App Store)
XCode command line tools are installed (xcode-select --install will prompt up a dialog)
Java

Install Homebrew:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

	# Thanks to commenters for providing the base of this much nicer implementation!
	# Save and run with $ python 0dedict.py
	# You may need to hunt down the dictionary files yourself and change the awful path string below.
	# This works for me on MacOS 10.14 Mohave
