Template Details

Parsa Jekyll is a static site theme built on Jekyll, ported by Themefisher from the Parsa HTML template. The repository description positions it as a theme suited to personal blog websites, and it can also be used for portfolio sites.

The theme's content configuration is centralized in _data/settings.yml. General theme settings (name, logo, email, phone, address) and page sections such as Hero, About, Team, Skills, Experience, Education, Services, Portfolio, Testimonials, Client Slider, and Contact can be adjusted without writing HTML/CSS.

For deployment, the README recommends forking the repository first; the site can then go live under a personal GitHub Pages account, and GitHub Pages must be confirmed as enabled for the repository. To run locally, enter the theme directory, run bundle install to install dependencies, then start the Jekyll server with jekyll serve or bundle exec jekyll serve. The template also comes preconfigured with Sitepins, a Git-based headless CMS, whose interface allows visual editing of text, images, and configuration.

Regarding licensing, the code uses the MIT license, permitting free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution. When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice must be retained. Demo images in the repository are for display only and are not provided under the code license.

Usage conditions & limitations

Free to use · keep license notice

This entry covers the free version under the MIT license in the public repository; the free scope applies to that version's code and does not mean external services or third-party assets are free.

Must comply with when using

Free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version's code are permitted.
When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, retain the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice.
The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.

Additional costs & items to verify

Demo images in the repository are for display only; their copyright belongs to their respective owners, and Themefisher has no right to provide them along with the code. Obtain authorization or replace them with your own assets before using these images; the MIT code license does not cover images.
The template is preconfigured with the third-party Git-based headless CMS Sitepins; visual content editing requires using that external service (links include promotional parameters). It is an optional external dependency, not a local feature.
Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked against their respective licenses; they cannot be judged solely by the code's MIT license.
External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur separate charges.

How this score is calculated

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.

What to verify for this project

Screenshot last checked: 2026-10-02

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.

The catalog identifies Jekyll as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.

After forking the repo, your site will be live immediately on your personal Github Pages account, e.g. `https://yourusername.github.io/your-repo-name/`.

## Deployment

To run the theme locally, navigate to the theme directory and run `bundle install` to install the dependencies, then run `jekyll serve` or `bundle exec jekyll serve` to start the Jekyll server.
I would recommend checking the [Deployment Methods](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/deployment-methods/) page on Jekyll website.
