A minimalist fork of the original Casper theme by Ghost

Casper Lite

Casper Lite is a fork of the original Casper theme for Ghost focused on using as many external assets as possible and using system fonts for faster rendering.

Features

• Uses system fonts for faster rendering (No more Google fonts!)
• Font Awesome for all social icons (No more custom font files!)
• More social links for website and authors

Install

Installation is a little different when compared to other themes since the idea is to be able to drop newer editions over the top of the current version without overriding current files.

1. Download a realse from the releases page
2. Unzip the file locally
3. Copy partials/author-social.hbs.dist to partials/author-social.hbs
4. Copy partials/social-links.hbs.dist to partials/social-links.hbs
5. Edit both files to include additional social links if required
   Note: these files must be present for the them to work
6. Zip up the file and upload it into Ghost!

Roadmap

• Redo side menu
• Add more homepage icons/headings to page/posts
• More to come!

Credit

Credit of course goes to the Ghost Team for creating the original Casper theme.
