## Installation

*First of all, you will need to [install Hugo](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#step-1-install-hugo) and [create new site](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#step-2-create-a-new-site).* After that, you ready to install **Binario**.

There are three different ways you can install **Binario**. Choose one of the installation methods listed below and follow the instructions.

- **A**. [Git submodule (**Recommended**)](#step-1a-git-submodule-recommended)
- **B**. [Git clone](#step-1b-git-clone)
- **C**. [Download ZIP and manual install](#step-1c-download-zip-and-manual-install)

*For more information read the [Install and Use Themes](https://gohugo.io/themes/installing-and-using-themes/)*

### 1A. Git submodule (Recommended)

In your Hugo site directory, run:

```
git submodule add https://github.com/vimux/binario themes/binario
```

Next, edit your `config.toml` configuration file and add parameter:

```
theme = "binario"
```

*You can [read the GitHub documentation for submodules](https://github.com/blog/2104-working-with-submodules) or those found on [Git's website](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules) for more information*

### 1B. Git clone

In your Hugo site directory, run:

```
git clone https://github.com/vimux/binario themes/binario
```

Next, edit your `config.toml` configuration file and add parameter:

```
theme = "binario"
```

### 1C. Download ZIP and manual install

[Download ZIP](https://github.com/vimux/binario/archive/master.zip) and extract to the `themes/binario`

Next, edit your `config.toml` configuration file and add parameter:

```
theme = "binario"
```

***

After that, you can run your site in Hugo server mode:

```
hugo server
```

After you make sure that **Binario** works, you may start customizing the theme. You can change [number of columns](#columns), activate [footer social icons](#footer-social-icons) & [share buttons](#share-buttons) and much more.
