The theme is developed on top of default Ghost theme which is Casper and Attila. You can see the demo.
The posts are grouped by their primary tag (first tag), Showing the count and see more link which will take the user to the tag page
The disqus comments are enabled by default, you could comment out the code. Just replace with your embed code from disqus.
The main files are:
default.hbs
- The main template fileindex.hbs
- Used for the home pagepost.hbs
- Used for individual postspage.hbs
- Used for individual pagestag.hbs
- Used for tag archivesauthor.hbs
- Used for author archives
One really neat trick is that you can also create custom one-off templates just by adding the slug of a page to a template file. For example:
page-about.hbs
- Custom template for the/about/
pagetag-news.hbs
- Custom template for/tag/news/
archiveauthor-ali.hbs
- Custom template for/author/ali/
archive
Casper styles are compiled using Gulp/PostCSS to polyfill future CSS spec. You'll need Node and Gulp installed globally. After that, from the theme's root directory:
$ npm install
$ gulp
Now you can edit /assets/css/
files, which will be compiled to /assets/built/
automatically.
The zip
Gulp task packages the theme files into dist/<theme-name>.zip
, which you can then upload to your site.
$ gulp zip

Casper uses inline SVG icons, included via Handlebars partials. You can find all icons inside /partials/icons
. To use an icon just include the name of the relevant file, eg. To include the SVG icon in /partials/icons/rss.hbs
- use {{> "icons/rss"}}
.
You can add your own SVG icons in the same manner.
