## What it is
A nearly no-CSS, fast, minimalist theme for Jekyll static sites, distributed as a Ruby gem. It prioritizes performance and readability with light/dark/auto modes, SEO optimization, RSS feed support, and full GitHub Pages compatibility.

- make my static site load extremely fast
- set up a personal blog on github pages
- find a jekyll theme with dark mode support
- build a content-first blog with almost no css
- add an rss feed and seo tags to my jekyll site

## When to choose
- you want a fast, lightweight Jekyll blog with minimal styling
