Chowder Bucket
====

The base theme used for micro-agency and blog, [RouterChowder](http://routerchowder.com).

It started life as a redesign of the excellent [Flex](https://github.com/the-development/flex) theme, but has since moved pretty far away from that. Now it's sporting easy-to-manage features like [Bower](http://bower.io/) / [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) and a snazzy, single line deploy system.

Oh, and it also uses [Foundation 6](https://github.com/zurb/foundation-sites), the single greatest web framework anywhere. Major props to [Zurb](https://github.com/zurb) for the incredible new release. 

All the code contained here tries to be as explanatory as possible. If you would like to build off of what's here, fork and explore! All I ask is that you give a nod (or donate) where your heart desires. You can also purchase our [swag](https://www.stickermule.com/en/marketplace/9882-router-chowder-monster) or our [tools](http://routerchowder.com/tag/tools). 

We will <3 you forever, if you do!

Installation
===
To use this theme, you would do so like any other Jekyll setup:

3. `cd` to the forked directory and run `npm install`
4. Serve up the site using `grunt serve`
5. Change deploy settings in `Gruntfile.js` to match your server
6. When you are ready to deploy, run `grunt deploy` 
7. Boogie on from there, Reggae Woman!
