That's really cool.

Just noticed a tiny bug when developing locally on a Windows machine, and possibly if the site is hosted on a Windows machine.

Windows doesn't allow semicolons (:) in file names.
It's better to use a dash or an underscore.

Solution: don't develop on windows ;)

I've update the gist to fix this anyway.

Haha, I love my Windows :)
Thanks.
