What is it and why
This Conf-Boilerplate theme is an Harmonic's theme aiming to be a simple replacement for the Conf Boileplate project.
It is still in beta, but it's working just fine, like the old one.
The original Conf Boilerplate was developed using DocPad. DocPad is awesome, but it covers a lot of features we don't want to use.
Also, now we're using Harmonic, a simple, but powerful static site generator built with the modern JavaScript.
How to use it
First of all, you'll need to install Harmonic.
As Harmonic is a Node.js based project, obviously, you'll need to install it first if you don't have it yet.
npm install harmonic -g
Now, init your new conference website:
harmonic init my_awesome_conf
Install conf boilerplate theme:
cd my_awesome_confnpm install harmonic-theme-conf-boilerplate --save
Change your theme in harmonic.json
file:
"theme": "harmonic-theme-conf-boilerplate"
Run:
harmonic run
