+Branches
+--------
+`main` is the [deployed](https://www.scottkirvan.com/ScooterGitTemplate/) branch. The repo doesn't currently contain any other historic or dev branches.

+Repo Layout
+-----------
+```
+ScooterGitTemplate
+├───_layouts
+├───.github

+│ └───workflows
+├───assets
+│ ├───css
+│ └───media
+└───notes
+```
+The `_layouts` and `assets/css` folders help support the look of the repo when rended to GitHub Pages (Deployment Workflow).
+You can see an example of this repo processed using Jekyll and published at [ScottKirvan.com](https://www.scottkirvan.com/ScooterGitTemplate/). You have to enable **Pages** in your repo's settings. Details [here](https://docs.github.com/en/pages/setting-up-a-github-pages-site-with-jekyll).
+
+The css file creates a page that is styled similar to GitHub's [Dark High Contrast](https://github.blog/changelog/2021-08-25-dark-high-contrast-theme-ga/) theme.
+
+The files in the `.github` folder implement and customizes a github action that runs [Release-Please](https://github.com/googleapis/release-please), which helps with releases, version numbering, and updating the [CHANGELOG](notes/CHANGELOG.md).
+
+>[!NOTE]
+> When using this template project, do not clone the tags or branches. Stick with `main` as the name of your main release branch. Change the version number in the `.release-please-manifest.json` file to the version you want to start with.
+>
+> Release-Please uses [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) (version: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH). Changes to version numbers are triggered by specific keywords in your commit messages:
+> - `feat:` (new feature) will bump the MINOR version number.
+> - `fix:` (bug fixes) will bump the PATCH number.
+> - `feat!:` `fix!:` or any `xxx!:` (major and breaking changes) will bump the MAJOR version number.

+## Lists
+
+Unordered
+
++ Create a list by starting a line with `+`, `-`, or `*`
++ Sub-lists are made by indenting 2 spaces:
+ - Marker character change forces new list start:
+ * Ac tristique libero volutpat at
+ + Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
+ - Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
++ Very easy!
+
+Ordered
+
+1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
+2. Consectetur adipiscing elit
+3. Integer molestie lorem at massa
+
+
+1. You can use sequential numbers...
+1. ...or keep all the numbers as `1.`
+
+Start numbering with offset:
+
+57. foo
+1. bar
+
+
+## Code
+
+Inline `code`
+
+Indented code
+
+ // Some comments
+ line 1 of code
+ line 2 of code
+ line 3 of code
+
+
+Block code "fences"
+
+```
+Sample text here...
