A minimal base.html file to get your project started

Overview:

The base.html project is a minimal and un-opinionated HTML base template that aims to provide a simple and clean starting point for web projects. It focuses on including only the necessary elements and best practices, allowing developers to make their own decisions about JS/CSS layout and third-party dependencies. The template is designed to be compatible with modern browsers and does not include specific support for older browser versions. It also offers guidance on additional features like setting a favicon, including a CSS reset, and integrating Google Analytics.

Features:

  • Minimal and Un-opinionated: The base.html project aims to be as minimal and un-opinionated as possible, providing a clean starting point for web projects.
  • No Forced JS/CSS Layout: Unlike other HTML base templates, base.html does not force decisions about JS/CSS layout, allowing developers to make their own choices.
  • No Third Party JS/CSS: It is no longer considered best practice to always include third-party JS/CSS like jQuery. base.html does not include any third-party dependencies by default.
  • Browser Compatibility: The base.html template is designed to be compatible with all modern browsers, ensuring that there are no elements that will break in any browser.
