2. Gernerate a SSH key for Github Action commit:

All done, happy writing.

You can empty all md files in content and all images files in rs/images, those are my demo contents. When you want to reference an image in your article, you should put the file in rs/images. It will be synced to your_name.github.io in which all md files are generated.

Notice: The CNAME file uploading and domain binding and other settings must be configured with yourself.

Showing your site on local

Classify your articles

If you want to classify your articles into different groups, you should create a subfolder into content, and then add the folder link into templates/partials/_nav.html.tpl. For example, if you have written an article about English learning, and want to create a English Learning group in your website.

mkdir content/el
mv your_md_file content/el/

Add el into templates/partials/_nav.html.tpl

[ <a class="nav-btn" href="/el/">Englisha> ]

Insert an image into your article

Create a images folder in public, copy your picture into the folder, write the relative path in your article.

![your_picture](/images/your_picture.jpg)
