# Jekyll Starter
A clean boilerplate to kickstart client-side sites using **Jekyll**, **Vite**, **Stimulus.js**, and **Tailwind CSS**.
Ideal for blogs, documentation sites, personal landing pages or portfolio.
I built this template to make Jekyll competitive with Astro.
Jekyll using version `4.4.1`
Stimulus configuration `app/javascript/application.js`
Stimulus controllers are located in `app/javascript/controllers/**`
Tailwind input `app/assets/stylesheets/tailwind.css`
Tailwind builds to `app/assets/stylesheets/application.css`
- [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/)
- [Vite](https://vite.dev/)
- [Stimulus.js](https://stimulus.hotwired.dev/)
- [Tailwind CSS](https://tailwindcss.com/)
