Zola template

A ready-to-use template featuring my custom theme for Zola — a fast, modern static site generator.

Getting started for the first time

To get started with this template, follow these steps:

1. Use the "Use this template" button on GitHub to create a new repository based on this template.
2. Name your repository (e.g., my-zola-site).
3. Add a description for your repository.
4. Edit the config file to customize your site.
   • You can change the title to the name of your site,
   • and the description to a brief summary of what your site is about.
   • Update the author section with your name.
   • Update the base_url in the config file to match your repository name (e.g., https://<username>.github.io/my-zola-site/). You can also set it to a custom domain if you have one.

Deploying your site

To deploy your Zola site, you can use GitHub Pages. Follow these steps:

1. Go to the "Settings" tab of your repository.
2. Scroll down to the "Pages" section.
3. Use GitHub Actions to deploy your site.

Customizing your site

You can customize your site by editing the following files:

• config.toml: This is the main configuration file for your Zola site. You can change the title, description, author, and other settings here.
• content/: This directory contains your site's content. You can add new pages, posts, and other content here. Please add images to the same directory as the Markdown file that references them.
