Questions tagged [jekyll-bootstrap]

Jekyll-bootstrap is used to refer to the pre-built scaffold for the static blog generator Jekyll. It differs from Jekyll in that it includes Twitter Bootstrap assets and pre-built Liquid templates.

Jekyll Bootstrap is a scaffold for the static blog generator Jekyll

The Jekyll Bootstrap package incorporates the Jekyll dependencies (written in Ruby) and Twitter's Bootstrap assets (HTML, CSS, and JS) and prebuilt templates using Liquid.

Questions with this tag should be concerned specifically with the Jekyll Bootstrap project layout or Liquid templates. Questions related to running a web server with these tools should be instead tagged jekyll, and questions about publishing these sites via Github should be tagged with github-pages. Questions about only the Bootstrap component should be tagged with twitter-bootstrap.

Jekyll Bootstrap was created by Jade Dominguez, who also created Ruhoh to achieve similar functionality to Jekyll
