Hi, I made whiteglass-template, so you can try it.

You can make a new Jekyll site repository by clicking "Use this template" button on whiteglass-template. If you want to edit existing _config.yaml file to use whiteglass, please take a look at _config.yaml of whiteglass-template.

To use whiteglass-template, create a repository by clicking "Use this template" button instead of copying some files from it.

  • .github/workflows directory and Gemfile enable GitHub Actions to generate the site and push it to gh-pages branch.
  • _posts directory contains an example post, so copying this isn't necessary.
  • _data, 404.md, about.md, archives.md, feed.xml, index.html, and robots.txt are parts of the theme.
  • _config.yml file is an example, so you have to change the value of baseurl and url to appropriate one after creating a repository. If you want to configure C7CodingDev/literate-octo-waddle repository:
    baseurl: "/literate-octo-waddle"
    url: "https://C7CodingDev.github.io"
