About

A complete theme in a repo that's especially useful for noobs who just want to generate a landing page with some customized styling options (colors, fonts, etc.) and one's content without knowing any html, javascript or css nor much about Hugo.....but...you do have to learn about writing markdown

Motivation: Plenty of themes out there for Hugo but few that would allow a noob to customize their page without knowing css and go templates and fewer still with all the javascript necessary to be fully responsive.

Goal: Create a mobile first responsive flexbox based Hugo landing page theme including shortcodes that would allow a noob to generate a customized landing page by only knowing a little markdown. Provide a starter repo to make it easy to create one's own landing page in a few minutes

Ultimiate Goal: Put together a noob virtualbox VM with all the tools (e.g. atom, smartgit, hugo, node, etc.) and code installed and configured and ready to go. Fire up the VM and you're instantly productive.
