Good to know: Needs Node.js to build.

How to use it

This is a Next.js theme, so it is not a single HTML file: you write pages in Markdown and Next.js builds the site. It needs Node.js on your computer, or a host that builds it for you.

  1. Start from the theme's guide. Open the GitHub repository and follow its install steps; most themes offer a starter you can copy in one click.
  2. Write your pages in Markdown. Each post or page is a simple text file.
  3. Publish. Free hosts like GitHub Pages, Netlify and Cloudflare Pages can build Next.js sites automatically when you push changes.
  4. Keep the license. Leave the LICENSE file in the theme folder.
