This is the personal website of Dongliang Chang, which can be visualized at https://www.dongliangchang.cn/.
This website was designed using the "al-folio" Jekyll theme for academics. al-folio is based on *folio theme. The original theme was published by Lia Bogoev and copyrighted under the MIT license. See information below on how to use it.
For more about how to use Jekyll, check out this tutorial. Why Jekyll? Read this blog post!
Assuming you have Ruby and Bundler installed on your system (hint: for ease of managing ruby gems, consider using rbenv), first fork the theme from github.com:alshedivat/al-folio
to github.com:<your-username>/<your-repo-name>
and do the following:
$ git clone git@github.com:<your-username>/<your-repo-name>.git
$ cd <your-repo-name>
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec jekyll serve
Now, feel free to customize the theme however you like (don't forget to change the name!). After you are done, you can deploy it to GitHub Pages by running the deploy script:
$ ./bin/deploy
Note: make sure to commit all your changes on the src
branch before deploying!
Emphasis on whitespace, transparency, and academic usage: theme demo.
To learn more on how to use Jekyll, you can refer to, e.g., this tutorial. To know why Jekyll, you can read this blog post.
Your publications page is generated automatically from your BibTex bibliography.
Simply edit _bibliography/papers.bib
.
You can also add new *.bib
files and customize the look of your publications however you like by editing _pages/publications.md
.
Keep meta-information about your co-authors in _data/coauthors.yml
and Jekyll will insert links to their webpages automatically.
This Jekyll theme implements collections to let you break up your work into categories. The example is divided into news, poetry, and projects, but easily revamp this into apps, short stories, courses, or whatever your creative work is.
To do this, edit the collections in the config file, create a corresponding folder, and update the portfolio and poetry source files.
Three different layouts are included—the poetry layout, for a simple list of entries, the blog layout (blog/index.html
), for more detailed descriptive list of entries, and the portfolio layout.
The projects layout overlays a descriptive hoverover on a background image.
If no image is provided, the square is auto-filled with the chosen theme color.
Thumbnail sizing is not necessary, as the grid crops images perfectly.
Six beautiful theme colors have been selected to choose from.
The default is purple, but quickly change it by editing the _sass/base.scss
file in line 40.
The color variable are listed there, as well.
Photo formatting is made simple using rows of a 3-column system. Make photos 1/3, 2/3, or full width. Easily create beautiful grids within your blog posts and projects pages.
This theme implements Jekyll's built in code syntax highlighting with Pygments. Just use a liquid tag to delineate your code: {% highlight python %} code code code {% endhighlight %}
