⚠️ Notice to those using legacy Formspree contact forms: ⚠️
Email-based forms are being phased out by Formspree. #11 updated this theme to use the new Formspree structure. Click here for instructions on updating your site's form.

This is the Agency Bootstrap theme converted to a gem-based Jekyll theme with GitHub Pages support. While this had been done before, (here, here, and here), these are outdated and have not been updated or maintained for years. I built this theme from the most recent Bootstrap source. I also added a lot of new features that go beyond the original theme's capabilities:

  • GitHub Pages support
  • template repo to get up and running in minutes
  • contact form functionality powered by Formspree.io
  • custom pages
  • 404 page
  • legal/Privacy Policy page
  • Google Analytics support
  • Markdown support
  • custom images
  • logo support (instead of just title text)
  • automatically updating copyright years
  • custom navigation bar, even without the header image(s)
  • customizable footer
  • custom accent color and dark/light colors
  • horizontal scrolling support for client section

The Jekyll structure of this theme includes:

  • _portfolio files - what generate the portfolio grid. YAML front matter handles all the details
  • the page layout allows custom pages, as seen in the legal and 404 pages
  • sitetext.yml enables complete customization of all site text
  • navigation.yml enables fully customizable navigation
  • style.yml enables fully customizable colors, background images, and other style-related things

If you enjoy this theme, please consider supporting me to continue developing and maintaining it.
