Template Details
This is a personal blog built with Jekyll, using the Chirpy theme. The repository content comes from Chirpy Starter: because when installing the Chirpy theme via RubyGems, Jekyll can only read the `_data`, `_layouts`, `_includes`, `_sass`, and `assets` directories from the theme gem as well as part of the `_config.yml` configuration, Starter extracts key files such as `_config.yml`, `_plugins`, `_tabs`, `index.html`, and the continuous deployment (CD) workflow into the repository, making it easy to start writing directly.
Before use, complete the basic environment setup according to the official Jekyll documentation and install Git. The installation method is to generate a new repository on GitHub using this template and name it `USERNAME.github.io`, clone it locally, and run `bundle`. For specific theme usage, refer to the Chirpy theme documentation.
Regarding licensing, the repository uses the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code; when distributing, retain the copyright notice and the complete MIT license statement. Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets, as well as external services such as domains and hosting, require separate verification of their respective licenses and fees.

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. ## Prerequisites Follow the instructions in the [Jekyll Docs](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation/) to complete the installation of the basic environment. [Git](https://git-scm.com/) also needs to be installed. ## Installation Sign in to GitHub and [**use this template**][use-template] to generate a brand new repository and name it `USERNAME.github.io`, where `USERNAME` represents your GitHub username. Then clone it to your local machine and run: ```console $ bundle ``` ## Usage Please see the [theme's docs](https://github.com/cotes2020/jekyll-theme-chirpy#documentation). ## License This work is published under [MIT][mit] License.
