This is a simple template project for kick-starting a web project using the Nanoc static site generator by Denis Defreyne.

Occasionally, I extract code and conventions from real-world projects and pull it back into this template. I also try to keep an eye on the HTML5 boilerplate project by Paul Irish, as it is a good source of front-end best practices.
