NKD just works. Start developing your prototype in jekyll without any of the boring setup.

Features

Modular file structure, easy to extend or get rid of existing code.
Mobile friendly responsive type scale
A light-weight SCSS base that starts with Normalize.css - 1.2KB minified / 214B gzipped.
Thoroughly commented code (Easy to get going if it's your first jekyll project)
Two media queries for tablet and desktop size screens. Lends itself to mobile-first design.

Getting started

Create a new repo for your project on Github
In terminal run

    git clone git@github.com:mrmrs/nkd.git [yourNewRepoName]
    cd [yourNewRepoName]
    npm install && npm start

If you want to set this up as your own github project you'll want to do the following.

    rm -rf .git
    git init
    git remote add origin git@github.com:[yourUserName]/[yourNewRepoName].git
    git remote -v
    origin git@github.com:[yourUserName]/[yourNewRepoName].git (fetch)
    origin  git@github.com:[yourUserName]/[yourNewRepoName].git (push)

Once you add & commit files you are ready to publish run:

git push -u origin master
