Sneakers 1.0 - The New Website

As you might have noticed, Sneakers got a refreshing facelift and a new website!

The goal was both to indicate we're going 1.0, and to set up a worthy go-to place for the now evolving Sneakers community. After a few weeks of fighting simple vs. complex, grand vs. elegant, we finally came at a simple, and elegant visual for Sneakers.

Enjoy!

With the new website you can easily quickstart, track versions, read the blog, browse our Wiki based documentation, and see what others are up to.

Join in!

As with the spirit of Sneakers, as a member of the community, you can change anything in the Sneakers landing page, blog, or add a blogpost of your own through submitting a pull request.

Add a post on the Sneakers blog

We're using Middleman and markdown-based blogging similar to Jekyll and Octopress.

Adding a post is a matter of submitting a pull request to the sneakers.io repo, after adding a markdown post of your choosing to source/blog/

One thing to note is that we have a custom support for attribution metadata.
