What stands out
A quick read of the recorded project description.
Site font uses Vazirmatn, article body font uses Sahel
Interface text is centralized in `/_data/ui-text.yml` for easy unified replacement
Pages such as About, Contact, and 404 are maintained in the `/_pages` directory
Posts are placed in `/_posts` following the `yyyy-mm-dd-post-name.md` convention
The repository provides an online demo page to preview the actual effect
Template Details
This is a Jekyll theme derived from minimal-mistakes. The main change is the completion of Persian localization and full support for RTL (right-to-left) typography, while unnecessary extra files from the original theme have been removed. The README states that the site font is Vazirmatn (وزیر) and the article body font is Sahel (ساحل), both of which are Persian fonts.
Configuration and content organization follow standard Jekyll practices: site settings are modified in `_config.yml`, interface text is adjusted in `/_data/ui-text.yml`, pages such as About, Contact, and 404 are located in `/_pages`, and posts are placed in `/_posts` with the naming convention `yyyy-mm-dd-post-name.md`. The README recommends referring to the `docs` and `test` directories of the upstream minimal-mistakes repository and their output sites to learn how to use the theme.
The theme is positioned for personal sites, blogs, project documentation, and portfolios, and an online demo is provided in the repository. The README does not specify browser compatibility, build performance, or production environment validation; these aspects need to be evaluated independently.
