# Lilium

Welcome to **Lilium theme** for [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/). This template is designed for a smooth garden-like blogging experience 🌱

> [!WARNING]
> Although this used to be a full digital garden theme, now I reduced the functions due developing and maintaining difficulties. Graphs are no longer supported but you can use it for digital gardening anyway and you can add plugins for semantic blogging.

🇬🇧 Also, for now Lilium theme is only available in english.
