1. Generate a full static production build

   npm run dev

2. Preview the site as it will appear once deployed

   npm run serve

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

1. Personalize siteMetadata.js (site related information)
2. Modify the content security policy in next.config.js if you want to use any analytics provider or a commenting solution other than giscus.
3. Personalize authors/default.md (main author)
4. Modify projectsData.js
5. Modify headerNavLinks.js to customize navigation links
6. Add blog posts

• data/siteMetadata.js - contains most of the site related information which should be modified for a user's need.

• data/authors/default.md - default author information (required). Additional authors can be added as files in data/authors.

• data/projectsData.js - data used to generate styled card on the projects page.

• data/headerNavLinks.js - navigation links.

• data/logo.svg - replace with your own logo.

• data/blog - replace with your own blog posts.

• public/static - store assets such as images and favicons.

• tailwind.config.js and css/tailwind.css - contain the tailwind stylesheet which can be modified to change the overall look and feel of the site.

• css/prism.css - controls the styles associated with the code blocks. Feel free to customize it and use your preferred prismjs theme e.g. prism themes.

• components/social-icons - to add other icons, simply copy an svg file from Simple Icons and map them in index.js. Other icons use heroicons.

• components/MDXComponents.js - pass your own JSX code or React component by specifying it over here. You can then call them directly in the .mdx or .md file. By default, a custom link and image component is passed.

• layouts - main templates used in pages.

• pages - pages to route to. Read the Next.js documentation for more information.

• next.config.js - configuration related to Next.js. You need to adapt the Content Security Policy if you want to load scripts, images etc. from other domains.

Run node ./scripts/compose.js to bootstrap a new post.

Follow the interactive prompt to generate a post with pre-filled front matter.
