A barebones theme for Ghost based on html5-boilerplate. This theme offers a very basic, unstyled output of your Ghost content to give you a head-start with the theme engine, while implementing the structure and best-practices of HTML5-Boilerplate. The theme also borrows some code from the default Ghost theme Casper.
Please note that Ghost is in an early development stage and this theme may adapt as Ghost evolves.
Download the latest version of the Ghost HTML5-Boilerplate Theme and unzip its contents into a folder named whatever you want to call your theme. Put that in the Ghost theme directory:
[GHOST_DIRECTORY]/content/themes/
Restart Ghost, then navigate to Settings > General in the Ghost admin area. Select your theme from the dropdown menu labeled "Theme" and hit Save. Voilà.
The current master version of Ghost HTML5 Boilerplate is intended for use with Ghost v0.4 and above and based html5-boilerplate v4.3.0. Refer to the releases page if you need this theme compatible to an older version of Ghost. Version numbers are matched up to the Ghost release they are compatible with.
Please leave feedback by opening an issue on Github.
It’s currently not possible in Ghost to implement a CDN for jQuery delivery in the same way it is done in h5bp. The reason is that the system outputs jQuery in the custom tag {{ghost_foot}} which must be included in every theme. This is a known issue that may be resolved in a later version of Ghost.
