|
|
|
### Let's build

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
```

|
$ npm i
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will install all the dependencies you will need to build your website.

|
|
|
|
```

|
$ node build --name username
|
|
```
|
|

### Let's customize
|
|
|
|
#### Enabling Dark theme
|
|
|
|
To enable dark theme just provide `--dark` as an argument while building
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ node build --name username --dark
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Customize background image
|
|
|
|
To customize the background image just provide `--background [url]` argument while building
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ node build --name username --background https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1557277770-baf0ca74f908?w=1634
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You could also add in your custom CSS inside `index.css` to give it a more personal feel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Let's Publish
|
|
|
|
You can host your website using github pages and use a custom domain aswell or simply use `username.github.io`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Updating
|
|
|
|
To update your info, follow the same steps shown in `Let's build` part
|
|
|
|

### Add a Blog

To add your first blog run this command, make sure the title don't have spaces.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ node blog --title my-first-blog
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will create a `my-first-blog` folder inside `blog`. Inside `my-first-blog` you will find an `index.html` file which contains all the necessary elements for writing a blog. Customize the content of the file to write your first blog.

|
"url_title": "my-first-blog", // the title you provide while creating a new blog
|
|
"title": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet", // main title of blog
|
