Theme

You can easily change the theme colors by changing the file src/yml/theme.yml, then running gulp build in your terminal.

GitHub pages

It's a known issue that you can't run Gulp when deploying the website into GitHub pages. So, you must change the theme colors and run gulp build locally, then push the changes into your repo, there is no other way.

To see how your website is going to look like when you deploy it, run bundle exec jekyll serve locally and access http://127.0.0.1:4000/.

Posts

You can create posts manually using the Front Matter properties or automatically using the available script.
