title: Introducing Lanyon
|
||
|
|
---
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lanyon is an unassuming [Jekyll](http://jekyllrb.com) theme that places content first by tucking away navigation in a hidden drawer. It's based on [Poole](http://getpoole.com), the Jekyll butler.

### Built on Poole
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Poole is the Jekyll Butler, serving as an upstanding and effective foundation for Jekyll themes by [@mdo](https://twitter.com/mdo). Poole, and every theme built on it (like Lanyon here) includes the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Complete Jekyll setup included (layouts, config, [404](/404), [RSS feed](/atom.xml), posts, and [example page](/about))
|
||
|
|
* Mobile friendly design and development
|
||
|
|
* Easily scalable text and component sizing with `rem` units in the CSS
|
||
|
|
* Support for a wide gamut of HTML elements
|
||
|
|
* Related posts (time-based, because Jekyll) below each post
|
||
|
|
* Syntax highlighting, courtesy Pygments (the Python-based code snippet highlighter)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Lanyon features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to the features of Poole, Lanyon adds the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Toggleable sliding sidebar (built with only CSS) via **☰** link in top corner
|
||
|
|
* Sidebar includes support for textual modules and a dynamically generated navigation with active link support
|
||
|
|
* Two orientations for content and sidebar, default (left sidebar) and [reverse](https://github.com/poole/lanyon#reverse-layout) (right sidebar), available via `<body>` classes
|
||
|
|
* [Eight optional color schemes](https://github.com/poole/lanyon#themes), available via `<body>` classes
|
||

|
### Browser support
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lanyon is by preference a forward-thinking project. In addition to the latest versions of Chrome, Safari (mobile and desktop), and Firefox, it is only compatible with Internet Explorer 9 and above.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Download
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lanyon is developed on and hosted with GitHub. Head to the <a href="https://github.com/poole/lanyon">GitHub repository</a> for downloads, bug reports, and features requests.
