What's jekyll-minimal-theme?

It's another minimal(istic) Jekyll static site generator theme, that is, a ready-to-fork template pack.

See a live demo @ henrythemes.github.io/jekyll-minimal-theme »

For example:

├── _config.yml                               # site configuration
├── _posts                                    # sample blog posts
|   ├── 2014-05-05-sportdb-update-v192.md     #   filename format:
|   ├── 2014-10-10-new-repo-baviria-bayern.md #    => YEAR-MONTH-DAY-TITLE.MARKUP
|   ├── 2014-10-21-sql-views.md
|   ├── 2014-11-11-new-reop-maps.md
|   └── 2014-12-15-quick-starter-datafiles.md
├── _layouts                           
|   ├── default.html                   # master layout template
|   └── post.html                      # single blog post template
├── css                               
|   ├── _settings.scss                 # style settings (e.g. variables)
|   └── style.scss                     # master style page
├── feed.xml                           # web feed template (e.g. in atom format)
├── archive.html                       # archive template
└── index.html                         # index template

will result in (with permalink: /:title.html):

└── _site                                # output build folder; site gets generated here
    ├── css
    |   └── style.css                    # styles for pages (copied 1:1 as is)
    ├── sportdb-update-v192.html         # blog post page
    ├── new-repo-baviria-bayern.html     # another blog post page
    ├── sql-views.html                   #  ""
    ├── new-repo-maps.html               #  ""
    ├── quick-starter-datafiles.html     #  ""
    ├── feed.xml                         # web feed (e.g. in atom format)
    ├── archive.html                     # archive page
    └── index.html                       # index page

Usage

To use - delete all sample posts in the _posts folder and change the settings in _config.yml to use your own site.title and site.url:

title:   'Jekyll Minimal Theme'
url:     'http://henrythemes.github.io/jekyll-minimal-theme'
author:
  name:  'Jekyll Minimal Theme Team'
