Theme Boilerplate #10

Closed JaredCubilla closed 10 years ago

JaredCubilla commented 10 years ago

I've created a repository for JSONResume theme development with Mustache. Thought you might be interested, but if you prefer for me to delete it, I would completely fine by it.

Also, it looks as if you need to update your own docs...

Hey Jared, this is a good initiative. @erming also started a boilerplate

https://github.com/jsonresume/jsonresume-theme-boilerplate

Trying to figure out best way to merge the two

JaredCubilla commented 10 years ago

Ah, I apologize for not seeing the boilerplate that @erming provided. I believe his version is better, especially the fact that it is nicely updated and everything. However, I would only suggest that you provide nicer documentation for the theme-manager and theme boilerplate in terms of detail and specifying the actual development stage. I have noticed that many JSONResume themes have been completely blank with the exception of "my template" on the screen.

Congratulations again on the 0.0.0 release. JSONResume is something that I believe will grow in time. :+1:

Sweet! Welcome to the org, I've added you to the "theme-team".

This will give you commit access to theme-manager, the default theme, and the boilerplate.

Hi @JaredCubilla!

I agree with what you're saying (the part about documentation). The boilerplate README only contains a guide to the installation, but should have a section called Theme development, where stuff like editing the package.json, publishing to npm, the template engine etc. should be covered.

Feel free to go nuts on the theme.

Right now it has nearly no styling, but maybe we could make it look a little bit prettier without bloating it too much. However, lets stay away from making it too complicated for beginners (like adding javascripts, CSS-frameworks and such)

Thanks guys!

I think the boilerplate is nice the way it is, but I'll updated the README with a Theme Development section.
