How to add mins to read in jekyll post like medium

Edit the _layouts/post.html and place below lines appropriately.

{% assign words = content | number_of_words %}

{{ words | plus:179 | divided_by:180 }} min read

References

• I got this idea from Carlos Becker’s post
• He has used if-else
• Whereas I have avoided that using ceil(words/180) i.e same as (words+179)/180

{% assign words = content | number_of_words %}

{% if words < 360 %}

1 min

{% else %}

{{ words | divided_by:180 }} mins

{% endif %}

</span>
