Mate Theme

What it Mate?

Mate is an argentinian herb that is used as tea (it is actually a tea leaf) and the name of this theme is because when I was developing this theme I was drinking a lot of Mate.

This is the base theme, nothing super fancy, and in fact it is the theme that you are looking right now.

It features a liquid responsive design

This theme is also a showcase with all the options that can be used in the metadata of a blogpost, how to customize the bloglist and how to do imports in the styl files to reduce file size while developing a template.

Remember to use the contents of the theme you are wanting to use directly into the /template directory.
