Jade Html5 Boilerplate
HTML5 Boilerplate ported to Jade. Great as a drop and go markup skeleton for Express apps.
Overview
The Jade HTML5 Boilerplate is a simple port of the HTML5 Boilerplate to Jade, a popular templating language for HTML. Created by Dan Motzenbecker, this port includes select parts of the original HTML5 Boilerplate but leaves them as unbuffered comments by default. Users can uncomment these sections to enable them. The theme also provides two layout options: layout.jade, which uses Express-based resource paths, and layout_vanilla.jade, which utilizes the originals. The templates can be output as HTML files by running the build command and tested against references with the test command. This port has been tested with Jade 1.1.5.
