Setting up

Add the following to your site's _config.yml file

plugins:
  - jekyll-time-to-read

Usage

Place the following tag somewhere within your layout:

{{ content | reading_time_as_i }}

This generates the reading time as a number, like "4 minutes" or "less than 1 minute."

Alternatively, you can choose to render numbers less than 10 as a string:

{{ content | reading_time_as_s }}

This generates the reading time as like "four minutes" or "less than one minute."
