To create a new blog post, you can add a new Markdown file in the _posts directory. The name of the file must follow in the format YYYY-MM-DD-title.md
. The easiest way to do this is to copy an existing blog post and modify it. Note that some blog posts have optional fields in the frontmatter that are used to enable specific behaviours or functions.
If you want to create blog posts that are not ready to be published but you want to track them with git, you can store them in the _drafts directory.
You can add a new person by adding a new Markdown file in the _people directory.
You can create new projects by adding new Markdown files in the _projects directory. The easiest way to do this is to copy an existing project and modify it. Note that some blog posts have optional fields in the frontmatter that are used to enable specific behaviours or functions.
To add publications, create a new entry in the _bibliography/papers.bib file. You can find the BibTeX entry of a publication in Google Scholar by clicking on the quotation marks below the publication title, then clicking on "BibTeX", or also in the conference page itself. By default, the publications will be sorted by year, and the most recent ones will be displayed first. You can change this behavior and more in the Jekyll Scholar
section in _config.yml file.
You can add extra information to a publication, like a PDF file in the assets/pdfs/
directory and add the path to the PDF file in the BibTeX entry with the pdf
field. Some of the supported fields are: abstract
, altmetric
, arxiv
, bibtex_show
, blog
, code
, dimensions
, doi
, eprint
, html
, isbn
, pdf
, pmid
, poster
, slides
, supp
, video
, and website
.
An example of adding additional fields can be seen in sensabubble:
bibtex_show={true},
pdf = {https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/2556288.2557087},
preview = {sensabubble.png},
html = {https://doi.org/10.1145/2556288.2557087},
video = {https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGUmf4HqTxM},
abbr = {CHI}
