Cinnamon Boilerplate

Simple, scalable boilerplate to help kick start your projects.

Features

  • Scaleable directory structure with clear, granular & intuitive naming conventions.
  • Ships with a handful goodies including an HTML5 template, jQuery, underscore, signals & cssmixins to help make your site awesome!
  • Integrates seamlessly with CodeKit for all your concatenation and minification needs.

Rationalle & Suggested Usage

  • A graphics folder and an images folder, what's that all about? In a nutshell, if it's referenced as a background-image or is an embedded logo, it goes in the graphics folder. If it's referenced as the src of an img element, it goes in the images folder.
  • Keep it consistent and adopt the conventions laid out before you. If you are embedding plugins such as SWFs, put them in a embeds folder. If you are referencing videos, put them in a videos folder. Maintain the verbose naming conventions and the world will be at peace with you.
