Template Details
two-by-two is a theme for Jekyll blogs, built on @barryclark's Jekyll Now. It uses a flat, dark visual style, includes a sidebar navigation, and offers a clean article layout in a green variant.
The repository README explicitly notes that the theme was still under development at the time, with the author stating it would be completed within a few days, so the styles and structure in the repository may not yet be finalized. The README provides only two screenshots as visual references and does not include installation steps, configuration details, or a feature list.
The theme uses Jekyll as a static site generator. The repository is under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, provided the copyright and license notice are retained. The licensing of third-party assets such as screenshots, fonts, and icons must be verified separately.

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.
