Blot Theme: Jot
This is my personal theme for Blot. It's a fork of the Index theme.
- Light and dark themes(!!)
- Navigational keyboard shortcuts (h, j, k, and l)
- Hash
ids for each header is-activeclass for active menu links- Outlined footnotes & refs when
:targeted - Canonicalized URLs
- OpenGraph image
<meta>from thumbnails - Display last-modified date in entries
- instant.page for just-in-time preloading
/tagspage to list all tags- Non-permalink RSS
<guid>s - CSS hyphenation
- Deploy script (plus more, see #scripts)
-
Check for internal 404 hyperlinks.
-
Changes I make directly to this codebase modify a "staging" template I have enabled in Blot. To "deploy", I use the
deploy.shscript to move files into an adjacent directory that is the "live" template within Blot. This allows me to use template preview URLs to view any changes before they impact live visitors, in an ideal world. -
Generate the screenshots featured in this README.
-
Generate (and print to stdout) the ISO 8601 compliant weeknotes file.
