The Foreground skin focuses on putting your content in the foreground. It supports responsive layouts and has classes predefined for Semantic MediaWiki. Built on Zurb's Foundation Framework (v5.5.3), a "mobile first" and advanced responsive front-end framework.

Highlights

• MediaWiki on top and at the bottom, nothing but content in the middle.
• Useful Tabs. Built-in and responsive own tabs.
• Smart Typography. Choose the design of the text that you need.
• Grid Layout. Place your information efficiently on desktop and mobile devices
• Full support of Font Awesome (v4.5)

Configurations

• Page actions for non-logged-in visitors.
• Show help and recent changes under tools.
• Alternate WikiName sets the top navbar name allowing you to abbreviate your wiki's name. Useful if your $wgSitename is long but you need to keep it for other purposes.
• Display an icon in the top navbar.
• Able to produce a meta tag with "X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" to force IE to use the latest browser engine. For instances when someone has their browser set in compatibility mode.
• Output the footer icons or suppress them showing only text.
• AddThis PubID to enable follow icons in the footer.

See the README file for information on how to install and configure this skin.
