I wanted to host a simple website somewhere and know that it would not go down when I forget to pay the hosting. That is why I chose Github Pages as my hosting platform. Github Pages only has one problem. I do not want to write HTML. This lead to ThonelJS creation. ThonelJS automatically generates new HTML and updates it to the git repository.
I also made a simple web server which made it possible to preview the website locally at localhost:8000.
As a blogger you should only focus onto the content folder and most specifically articles folder inside it. articles folder contains your blog posts. The title will be grabbed from the filename (.md suffix will be removed) so writing title inside markdown file is unnecessary (and leads to duplicate title).
/content/info.json is like your blog settings. It uses JSON to store the website title and description.
/content/index.md is the frontpage of your website. If you rename or remove it the frontpage will show a list of all the blog posts. The same applies to /content/about.md which will be shown only if it exists.
If you want to preview the changes before pushing them (very much RECOMMENDED) you can do that by running node . in the ThonelJS folder. This although requires Node.JS to be installed on your machine.
