Reference

Kramdown is the MarkDown flavour that is being used to write simple text pages. (The files the the extension: .md)

Jekyll is used to process the markdown and partial html pages into a complete website.

Github Pages is used to host the website. Github knows about jekyll, so github will use jekyll to create the website everytime new commits are pushed to github.

Universal bootstrap theme is used for stylesheets and layout. It is free and has been downloaded from bootstrapious. It should be relatively easy to copy-paste any layout component you see in the theme into the DST4L website. If you need this simply write your page in HTML (use .html as extension)

Bootstrap is used by the Universal theme to do the layout. So if you have special layout requirements you may need to check the boottrap documentation. Also, any CSS and Component from Bootstrap should be easy to use in the DST4L website.
