*folio is a simple, portfolio+blog+personal landing page theme built for Jekyll, a static website generator originally geared for GitHub project pages. It was my first foray into creating themes—something I quickly found a passion for. The problem of creating something that works for many scenarios as simply and elegantly as possible is addicting.
For this project, I wanted to combine a personal blog with a portfolio page, and wanted two separate layouts for that. I also wanted a simpler listing for my poetry, which I was able to easily import from Tumblr straight into markdown entries for Jekyll.
I started with the original install of Jekyll, cleaned it up, whitened it up, and made the focus white space, subtle transparencies, and Helvetica.

the About page, which focuses on oversized FontAwesome icons which easily link users to social media.

A simple, lightweight list layout, perfect for poems or the like.
