Template Details
This is the source repository for Bobby R. Bruce's personal website (bobbybruce.net), built with Jekyll and using the Minimal Mistakes theme, with few changes compared to the original theme. The repository notes that, because it is based on Minimal Mistakes, most of its content follows that theme's MIT license and related copyright notices; the website content produced by Bobby R. Bruce himself is copyrighted by him.
The site is hosted on GitHub Pages. Based on the screenshots provided in the repository, it includes desktop and mobile homepages, as well as a blog list page. The repository does not provide further details about page structure, content organization, or deployment process, so specific sections, navigation items, and content types beyond the homepage and blog should be determined from the actual site or repository files.

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.
