Enable description to be displayed under title in the posts list page

Dear @vaga ,
Appreciate if you can enable a way to display the Front Matter "Description" under the title, so I can display a brief about an article .
Thank you so much for the theme, its perfect :) .

@amrelhusseiny, you can do this by having a file called single.html in /layouts/_defaults/ with the following:

{{ define "main" }}
  <article class="post">
    <header class="post-header">
      <h1 class ="post-title">{{ .Title }}</h1>
      <h3 style="color:gray">{{ .Description }}</h3>
      {{- if ne .Type "page" }}
      <div class="post-meta">
        <div>
          {{ partial "icon.html" (dict "ctx" $ "name" "calendar") }}
          {{ .PublishDate.Format "Jan 2, 2006" }}
        </div>
        <div>
          {{ partial "icon.html" (dict "ctx" $ "name" "clock") }}
          {{ .ReadingTime }} min read
        </div>
        {{- with .Params.tags }}
        <div>
          {{ partial "icon.html" (dict "ctx" $ "name" "tag") }}
          {{- range . -}}
            {{ with $.Site.GetPage (printf "/%s/%s" "tags" . ) }}
              <a class="tag" href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
            {{- end }}
          {{- end }}
        </div>
        {{- end }}
      </div>
      {{- end }}
    </header>
    <div class="post-content">
      {{ .Content }}
    </div>
    <div class="post-footer">
      {{ template "_internal/disqus.html" . }}
    </div>
  </article>
{{ end }}

Explaination

the theme doesn't really support this feature as of now, however you can change the code as per your liking. The single.html controls the blog pages so adding the <h3 style="color:gray">{{ .Description }}</h3> after the title (after line 4) would display the description from the blogs' frontmatter.

Could this issue be assigned to me so I can work on adding this feature to the theme? @vaga
