probably gonna fork the project, and push stuff up-stream that I think fits in with the project.

I think that roguefoam intentionally wants to keep the upstream minimal.

@fbievan @roguefoam

Lemme know if you come up with something good, I’d be happy to link to it. :)

@amin @roguefoam yeah, as you already saw my guestbook uses readable.css, I honestly struggle with understanding how most of this CSS works tbh.

It's gonna look pretty similar to that, with the navigation disappearing to go back to just 'Home', because I prefer to emphasize that page is something different than the home.

this is how an article looks like at the moment... I will likely change some things with the way articles are shown, becuase at the moment, I don't look the fact that there are two headers really close to each other, I'll redo that later today (I'm not a designer at all lol)

@amin @roguefoam this is also my first time actually making (coding) any website stuff with hugo, so it's been interesting.
@fbievan @amin Actually, I'm happy to implement a lot of new features if you've got stuff in mind. Right now it's mostly minimal because I haven't been able to sit down and work on it too much (will knock out some stuff next week hopefully....) but if you've got ideas feel free to throw me a PR :)

@roguefoam @amin

if you want to see what I have been doing (basically destroying the simplicity of the theme), see https://testing.fbievan.live

It's very much me things, so yeah....

@roguefoam @amin If i do see something that I think fits into upstream, I'll probably create a PR.
@roguefoam @amin just sent a PR (enjoy!)
@fbievan @amin ill take a look within the next week when I can sit down with it for a bit!

@roguefoam @amin

Its mostly about the footer, since the current footer system doesn't really allow proper copyright information.

I also took the liberty of making a 'minimal' footer mode, pretty short, so whenever you get time to review, it should be nice :-)
