Jekyll is pretty rad and figured releasing a cleaned up version of my site as a theme for others to hack and build on would be fun. So here be that theme --- I call it Minimal Mistakes, a responsive Jekyll theme with editorial tendencies.
Minimal Mistakes is all about:
Responsive templates. Looking good on mobile, tablet, and desktop.
Gracefully degrading in older browsers. Compatible with Internet Explorer 8+ and all modern browsers.
Minimal embellishments. Content first --- other widget nonsense never.
Large feature images for posts and pages.
Simple and clear permalink structure (ie: domain.com/category/post-title)
