Trying out a better way to code my theme

I haven’t posted much lately as I’ve been busy streamlining my theme. I’ve been integrating lettering.js and less.js to reduce the amount of CSS that I am using. Utilizing arrays in less.js is a good way to reduce the amount of repetitive CSS that I’m using plus allows for a more streamlined site.

Lettering.js is an excellent jquery plugin to gain more control over your kerning on your headlines though I am finding it is overkill for body text. Lettering and kern.js is a great way to make kerning easy but it isn’t playing nicely with linked headers for me.
