Design styles are helpful to nail down the look for your website, app, game, or startup. You can either fully adopt a style, or get inspired to mix & match your favorites.

I recommend checking out the minimal
folder inside the styles
folder to get an example of how to create a new style
- ADD YOUR DESIGN IN ITS OWN FOLDER: Inside the
styles
folder, make a new folder named after the style you are submitting. This folder is where you should place your files. - KEEP YOUR FILES TO A MINIMUM: Just use a main
index.html
&style.css
file. If you must, must, use some javascript-magic for your design style to work, then you may also include ascript.js
file & any neccessary libraries. Additional resources, such as images, are at your discreation of where to add, how to display, and how many to use. - BE CLEAR IN YOUR PULL-REQUEST: Don't just sumbit a PR and call it a day, please. You should explain what style you are submitting, and any links to examples or articles discussing the style are greatly appreciated and can help get your PR merged quicker!
- KEEP THE MAIN CONTENT THE SAME: The "main" content of the site should stay the same. When forking this repo, copy the template
index.html
file in the root directory, this will help you know which content should remain, and which content you are free to modify & customize to your specific style. - TAG YOUR ISSUES APPROPRIATELY: We have tags for bugs, typos, questions, and misc. Use em' or... lose em'! ...Or something like that...
Hey did you know that the main homepage for this site is pretty ugly & boring? Yup, that's the point! The base homepage is devoid of any style, just plain ol' HTML. This is because this is meant to act as a "blank slate" for future design style contributions
