Basic layout of the site (a few things):
Base is the generic template to inherit everything from.
It specifies the metadata and general structure of the site. Each page
hereafter is just an inherited template from this page. A generic index
page to act as the home page is provided as an example.

This index page will likely be kept as well. It follows the example for
a landing page from the http://purecss.io as of this date. I chose this
because it was a) simple to set up and b) easy to accommodate various
color changes.

For the time being the site will be in grey / white until I find a
better colour scheme I wish to stick with. It should also be noted that
.gitignore was update (added stars after directory names) and
_config.yml was generated (to say that I want pretty links and likewise
that the markdown style is kramdown, which is currently the same as what
is used on github, if anyone wants to fork this project and make their
own site similarly. PureCSS libraries were also added
(css/main-grid.css), but not heavily used (yet).
