This is a demo blog for Undefined, a minimal starter theme for the Ghost blogging platform. This free starter theme has everything you need to get started making themes for the Ghost blogging platform.

Looking for a nice theme that’s ready to go? Check out my other themes, Mnml (free) and Laminim (premium).

Features

• Bring your own CSS. Front end developers are persnickety about their CSS frameworks: Some write everything from scratch, some roll their own framework that they use in all their projects (in my case, Sassify), and some use Bootstrap or Foundation or the current framework-de-jour. Undefined leaves all the styling to you: just drop your styles in main.css and you’re ready to go.

• Responsive! Because plain HTML is responsive by default.

• Ready for Ghost v1 and beyond. With undefined as a starting point, your theme is ready for the future.

• Super modular. Undefined makes use of handlebar partials to break things into neat, self-contained modules. Don’t want a subscribe form? Remove the subscribe-widget module without code-surgery.

• Ready-to-roll. Everything you’d expect from a Ghost theme is built in: A homepage with post teasers, author pages, tag pages, navigation menu, subscribe form, metadata, and more. Free cars don’t often come with gas in tank and air in the tires!

• Smart defaults. You can customize undefined in a thousand different ways, and it makes the job easier by being as close to neutral as possible. It’s like a dark grey suit — it’s not flashy, but it can go anywhere. You get a menu with a list of links, a little author bio below each post, reasonable metadata below the title. You get a footer with copyright date and theme attribution. You get all the files that Ghost requires (post page, index, etc) to run, plus all the files a blog needs to be complete (tag and author pages, etc). Nothing fancy, but very respectable.

• Cleanly coded and comprehensively commented. The code is nice and clean, W3C valid, and scores "A" on Google pagespeed.
