Template Details
This is a personal blog repository created with the Chirpy Jekyll theme, and the README states that its content comes from the Chirpy Starter template. When the Chirpy theme is installed via RubyGems, Jekyll can only read the _data, _layouts, _includes, _sass, and assets directories in the theme gem, along with some options in _config.yml. The Starter template therefore extracts key files such as _config.yml, _plugins, _tabs, and index.html, together with the CD workflow, so users can start writing right away.
The repository itself is the author's personal blog instance, with a demo at faizul726.github.io/blog. The site is a static blog and includes pages such as a home page and category pages. For complete usage of the theme, refer to the official Chirpy documentation; this repository does not provide additional custom configuration notes in its README.
Regarding licensing, the repository includes a standard MIT license file, which permits free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code, provided the copyright notice and license notice are retained when distributing. Third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons must be checked separately under their respective licenses.

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

Source file / repository# Chirpy Starter [][gem] [][mit] When installing the [**Chirpy**][chirpy] theme through [RubyGems.org][gem], Jekyll can only read files in the folders `_data`, `_layouts`, `_includes`, `_sass` and `assets`, as well as a small part of options of the `_config.yml` file from the theme's gem. If you have ever installed this theme gem, you can use the command `bundle info --path jekyll-theme-chirpy` to locate these files. The Jekyll team claims that this is to leave the ball in the user’s court, but this also results in users not being able to enjoy the out-of-the-box experience when using feature-rich themes. To fully use all the features of **Chirpy**, you need to copy the other critical files from the theme's gem to your Jekyll site. The following is a list of targets: ```shell . ├── _config.yml ├── _plugins ├── _tabs └── index.html ``` To save you time, and also in case you lose some files while copying, we extract those files/configurations of the latest version of the **Chirpy** theme and the [CD][CD] workflow to here, so that you can start writing in minutes. ## Usage Check out the [theme's docs](https://github.com/cotes2020/jekyll-theme-chirpy/wiki). ## Contributing This repository is automatically updated with new releases from the theme repository. If you encounter any issues or want to contribute to its improvement, please visit the [theme repository][chirpy] to provide feedback. ## License This work is published under [MIT][mit] License.
