Jekyll + ZURB Foundation Quickstart

A template project to quickly start a new project based on ZURB Foundation and the Jekyll static site generator.

Unlike other projects (such as Octopress), this is a minimal skeleton repository upon which you can build your project. You have to understand all the moving parts and how they are configured.

What's Inside

Technologies

• SASS
• Compass;
• ZURB Foundation;
• Foreman;

Goodies

• Default page templates, suitable for a blog;
• Sensible Jekyll defaults;
• Site-wide Atom feed for all blog posts;
• Uses Foreman to orchestrate compass watch and Jekyll development server;

Getting Started

Clone this repository and perform the automated setup procedure:

git clone git://github.com/lvillani/quickstart-jekyll-zurb.git my-site
cd my-site
make setup

At this point you can start the development server by running:

make runserver
