Template Details
onepage is a Jekyll theme positioned as an "uncomplicated single-page blog." It organizes blog content on a single page rather than the traditional multi-page list-and-detail structure. The repository provides an online demo (https://lukas-h.github.io/onepage/) and includes desktop and mobile screenshots.
The usage instructions in the README are specific: fork the repository and rename it, create a gh-pages branch, then edit _config.yml to fill in title, description, url with protocol, baseurl, GitHub and Twitter usernames (without the @ prefix), accent color, address and name email, Google Analytics ID, and the HTML content language isolang (default English). Posts go in the _posts directory, following Jekyll's post conventions.
The theme itself contains no backend or database; building and hosting rely on static hosting environments such as Jekyll and GitHub Pages. The repository was last updated in 2020 and provides no further feature documentation, so the actual usable scope is defined by the repository code and README.

Usage conditions & limitations
Free to use · keep license noticeThis entry covers the free version under the MIT license in the public repository; the free scope is this version of the code and does not imply that external services or third-party assets are free.
Must comply with when using
- Permits free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code.
- When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, retain the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice.
- The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.
Additional costs & items to verify
- Google Analytics is an optional external service: if enabled, you must provide your own GA tracking ID and are subject to Google's terms of service and privacy policy; not filling it in does not affect basic theme usage.
- When configuring GitHub and Twitter usernames, the @ prefix must be removed, otherwise social links will point to incorrect addresses.
- The url variable must include the http or https protocol prefix, otherwise site links and resource paths may fail.
- When deployed in a subpath, baseurl must be set correctly (e.g., "/onepage"), otherwise page styles and links will 404.
- Following the README process, a gh-pages branch must be created for GitHub Pages publishing; this is a deployment prerequisite for using the theme.
- Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked against their respective licenses and cannot be judged solely by the code's MIT license.
- External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur additional charges.

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.
