Instructions

1. To modify the main page, edit the _pages/about.md file.
2. To add publications, create a new file under the _publications directory.
3. To modify CV, change the file under files/resume.pdf
4. To create new pages, modify the _data/navigation.yml file.
5. To modify style, edit _sass/* files.

Main Working Principles

1. Under _pages directory, there are different pages like about.md, publications.md. These pages are written in markdown format, and they control the content of the page. Things writen in these markdowns will be passed to the layout file as {{ content }} variable.

2. Under _config.yml, you will see the layout for the page. For example, the publication page:

    scope:
      path: ""
      type: publications
    values:
      layout: single
      author_profile: true
      share: true
      comments: true
   

   which means that single.html layout will be used to display the page. And you will find a {{ content }} in single.html, this variable will be replaced by the content of the publications.md file.

3. Go to corresponding layout file under _layouts directory to modify the layout. For example, the single.html file under _layouts directory.

4. All the included files (called like {% include archive-single-publication.html %} in publication.md file) are under _includes directory. You can modify them to change the style of the page.
