Community

Please help spread the word about Jekyll Bootstrap. Also your usage feedback is very much needed and appreciated.

Themes

Please consult the Theme API section to learn how to create and update themes.

Themes are tracked and published on the GitHub Jekyll-Bootstrap Project Page. To update an existing theme please send pull requests to the theme's repository.

Javascript Plugins

If you are good at javascript we can work together to figure out a definitive client-side plugin strategy for Jekyll. This is really important because since GitHub pages can't support liquid/jekyll plugins, we can still code robust functionality via javascript.

Core Jekyll/Liquid API

This is the core JB framework which interacts with Liquid and Jekyll. If you are good at ruby and/or Liquid, consider improving the rake tasks or JB helpers.

Documentation

More content, tutorials information is welcome. You can also proofread existing materials.

Why
