Template Details

This is a two-column blog example template built with Jekyll. The author states that it is based on the default structure generated by `jekyll new .`, with additional plugins, modifications, and customizations. The repository is also named "Jekyll Skell Blog and Theme" and can be used as a blog skeleton and theme reference.

Functionally, the template integrates Simple Jekyll Search for site search, uses jekyll-paginate to paginate post lists, and includes the Font Awesome icon font. The page structure is a two-column layout, and the demo site includes a homepage and inner pages such as about.

The repository provides an online demo URL so you can view the actual rendering first. The template is under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, provided the copyright notice and license notice are retained. Images used in the demo, such as the header image and footer background, come from third-party sources including Openclipart and WallpapersWide, and their licenses must be checked separately. The repository was last updated in 2016 and does not provide a dependency version list; before use, it is recommended to verify compatibility between Jekyll and each plugin.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

What to verify for this project

Repository update recorded: 2016-06-08
Screenshot last checked: 2026-10-03

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Jekyll as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
