Baseline
Baseline is a simple boilerplate for building new projects on Skel. Features include:
- Clear and concise HTML5/CSS3 code.
- Fully responsive.
- Extensively organized Sass sources.
- Off-canvas navigation (built with CSS3 and just a tiny bit of vanilla JS).
- Numerous pre-styled elements.
- Font Awesome icons.
- Everything offered by Skel + Skel.scss, including:
- A powerful, fully responsive CSS grid system.
- Handy utility classes (like
container). - Breakpoint events (eg.
skel.on("+small", function() { /* do something when the "small" breakpoint becomes active */ });).
Note: This version of Baseline is built on Skel 3 (currently in active development).

Here's a quick overview of how Baseline's files are organized:
| File | Description |
|---|---|

Breakpoint Structure
Baseline is set up to use the following breakpoints:
| Name* | Media Query |
|---|---|
xlarge |
(max-width: 1680px) |
large |
(max-width: 1280px) |
medium |
(max-width: 980px) |
small |
(max-width: 736px) |
xsmall |
(max-width: 480px) |
If you need to change these, they're explicitly defined in two separate places:
-
assets/js/main.jsEnables Skel's breakpoint events and other breakpoint-related functionality.
-
assets/sass/main.scssEnables the use of the Skel.scss's
breakpoint()mixin and adds responsiveness to its various layout tools (grid system, containers, etc).
