About this Theme
Tale is a minimal Jekyll theme built around the idea that nothing should compete with your writing. Its single-column layout, careful typographic choices, and complete absence of visual clutter create a reading experience that feels calm and focused.
The theme handles the basics well — pagination, tags, syntax highlighting, comments — without adding anything unnecessary. If you’ve ever felt that most blog themes have too much going on, Tale is the answer.
Who is it for? Writers, journalists, and developers who want their words to be the centrepiece of every page with no distracting chrome around them.
