Hey guys, how are you?
��
����
As you know, this is a 100% free template, I earn nothing to maintain it. So, I have this idea and hope you can join me for a good cause.
Every donation that I receive from this project from now on (04/11/21), I'll donate to NGOs that work against hunger in Brazil.
If you feel the template is worth it and you could help people in need, here is the link:
Thank you!

Setup
In the case you're cloning this repo, follow those instructions:
Customization
See the settings documentation to customize layout, titles, social media and more.
Theme
You can easily change the theme colors by changing the file src/yml/theme.yml, then running gulp build in your terminal.
GitHub pages
It's a known issue that you can't run Gulp when deploying the website into GitHub pages. So, you must change the theme colors and run gulp build locally, then push the changes into your repo, there is no other way.
To see how your website is going to look like when you deploy it, run bundle exec jekyll serve locally and access http://127.0.0.1:4000/.
Posts
Use the Front Matter properties to create posts.
Note: In the case you're cloning this repo, you can use the available script to generate posts automatically.
