One Page Wonder Jekyll is a Jekyll-powered port of the Start Bootstrap One Page Wonder theme, delivering a single-page marketing layout as a static site.
What is One Page Wonder Jekyll?
One Page Wonder Jekyll is a GitHub-hosted Jekyll port of the One Page Wonder Bootstrap template originally created by IronSummitMedia and distributed through Start Bootstrap. It runs on Jekyll, a Ruby-based static site generator that converts Markdown files and Liquid templates into static HTML. The repository, managed by user mushishi78, has 33 stars and is open for public contributions. Rather than editing raw HTML, users of this port edit content through Markdown and Jekyll's configuration files, while the layout and styles come from the original One Page Wonder design.
Key Features
- Faithful porting of One Page Wonder — The template keeps the classic one-page look, including a full-width hero image and sets of alternating image-and-text rows, as featured in the original Bootstrap build.
- Markdown-driven content — In the Jekyll port, page content is written in Markdown, so non-developers can update text without touching HTML.
- Jekyll layout system — The theme uses Jekyll's layout and include structure, meaning shared parts like the header and footer are defined once and reused across any pages.
- Static site output — The build produces plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, ready to deploy to GitHub Pages, Netlify, or any static host.
- Bootstrap heritage — Because the source theme is Bootstrap-based, the port inherits responsive grid behavior and utility classes, though the exact Bootstrap version is not specified in the repository.
- Clear contribution workflow — The README documents a five-step process (fork, create feature branch, commit, push, and open a pull request) that anyone can follow to suggest changes.
Who is it for?
- Developers who want a pre-built single-page static site — They can clone the repo, write content in Markdown, and run
jekyll buildto get a deployable site. - Designers moving from static HTML to Jekyll — The port shows how an existing Bootstrap template can be converted into Jekyll's file structure, and it can serve as a reference for other conversions.
- Open-source contributors — The repository's contributing guide gives a clear path for forking, branching, and submitting pull requests to improve the template.
How does contribution work?
The contribution workflow, as described in the README, starts with forking the repository from GitHub. Then a contributor creates a new feature branch, commits changes locally, pushes the branch to their fork, and opens a pull request to the original project. This standard GitHub flow is the only workflow documented in the README.
