This is a port of Ghost's default theme Casper for Jekyll inspired by Kasper.
You might well ask at this point why bother making a new Casper's clone? Although this is inspired by Kasper, there are several additional features which make this port closer to the original theme. Besides, it was recently updated to match the current version of the theme.
The main difference to the original is still the fact that Jasper expects a single author. With a bit of tweaking it shouldn't be too difficult to enable a per-post author. Feel free to fork and improve on this.
Important: For security reasons, Github doesn't allow plugins (under _plugins/) when deploying with Github Pages. This means that we need to generate your site locally (as explained below) and push the resulting HTML to a Github repository. This is exactly what I have done for the generating the live demo.

Simply clone this repository (master branch), and then run jekyll serve inside the directory. Upload the resulting
_site/ contents to your repository (gh-pages branch).
I have tested this install with Ruby v2.2.2p95 (Mac OS RVM) and Jekyll v3.0.0. If you run into any issues please log them on the issue tracker.
Feel free pull-request your patches and fixes.
Most of the work has been already done by the Ghost team and Rosario. Many thanks to them 😄
