Quick start

git clone https://github.com/welpo/tabi.git
cd tabi
zola serve

Open http://127.0.0.1:1111/ in the browser.

Installation

To add tabi to you existing Zola site:

0. Initialize a Git repository in your project directory (if you haven't already):

git init

1. Add the theme as a git submodule:

git submodule add https://github.com/welpo/tabi.git themes/tabi

Or clone the theme into your themes directory:

git clone https://github.com/welpo/tabi.git themes/tabi

Required configuration

2. Enable the theme in your config.toml:

theme = "tabi"

3. Set a title in your config.toml:

title = "Your Site Title"

4. Create a content/_index.md file with the following content:

+++
title = "Home"
paginate_by = 5 # Set the number of posts per page
template = "index.html"
+++

If you want to serve your blog posts from a different path, such as blog/, add a section_path in the [extra] section of content/_index.md (this file will need pagination):

[extra]
section_path = "blog/_index.md"

5. If you want an introduction section (see screenshot above), add these lines to content/_index.md:

[extra]
header = {title = "Hello! I'm tabi~", img = "$BASE_URL/img/main.webp" }

The content outside the front matter will be rendered between the header title and the posts listing. In the screenshot above, it's the text that reads "Tabi is a fast, lightweight, and modern Zola theme…".
