  5. Modify src/data/projectsData.ts
  6. Modify src/data/headerNavLinks.ts to customize navigation links

Development

First, run the development server:

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying src/data/article/[zh/en]/*.mdx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

Extend / Customize

src/data/siteMetadata.ts - contains most of the site related information which should be modified for a user's need.

src/data/authors/[en/zh]/default.mdx - default author information (required). Additional authors can be added as files in src/data/authors.

src/data/projectsData.ts - data used to generate styled card on the projects page.

src/data/headerNavLinks.ts - navigation links.

src/components/Logo/Logo.tsx - replace with your own logo.

src/data/article/[en/zh]/*.mdx - replace with your own blog posts.

public/static - store assets such as images and favicons.

src/styles/global.css - contain the tailwind stylesheet which can be modified to change the overall look and feel of the site.

src/styles/prism.css - controls the styles associated with the code blocks. Feel free to customize it and use your preferred prismjs theme e.g. prism themes.

src/components/MDXComponents - pass your own JSX code or React component by specifying it over here. You can then call them directly in the .mdx or .md file. By default, a custom link and image component is passed.

layouts - main templates used in pages.

app/[locale] - pages to route to. Read the Next.js documentation for more information.

next.config.mjs - configuration related to Next.js. You need to adapt the Content Security Policy if you want to load scripts, images etc. from other domains.

Deploy

Vercel
The easiest way to deploy the template is to use the Vercel Platform from the creators of Next.js. Check out the Next.js deployment documentation for more details.

The API routes used in the newsletter component cannot be used in a static site export. You will need to use a form API endpoint provider and substitute the route in the newsletter component accordingly. Other hosting platforms such as Netlify also offer alternative solutions - please refer to their docs for more information.
