This looks really cool! However I'm confused by in the article it says that one of the downsides us that the blog's style cannot be changed. Then in the glyph readme's, it talks about themes and templates. Can this be expounded upon/clarified? Thanks and very clever stuff.

I think you're referring to the part listing the drawbacks of using GitHub Issues for a blog in general. If you continue to the subsequent "How it works" section, you'll see this:

"Glyph removes all of those drawbacks for you."

Absolutely correct! I was referring to directly blogging via Github issues.

As ugotsta already answered I was referring to directly blogging via Github issues. Then you cannot choose a theme/style.

In contrast Glyph offers you all the custom theming you want (I think) :)
