Classless is a default HTML template that supports basically article pages and list pages, plus a global header, a navigation menu, a global footer, everything you need to build a simple blog or website.
The idea is that if you write HTML conforming to the rules specified by it you'll get access to multiple themes written with the same structure in mind, so you don't have to reinvent theming engine and themes every time you change or write your own CMS or static site generator, you just bring you CSS file over and it's done. The same minimalism ideal that powers makesite.py.
My idea is that with a few tweaks we can make makesite.py's default layouts conform to the Classless structure, making it easy for newcomers to start their sites by already using one of the prebuilt themes. Of course, none of the flexibility is lost and people can still tweak everything and either create a custom Classless theme or totally move away from the Classless template if they want.
