How to make a small website

Learn how to make your website.

First steps

Follow the installation instructions, select Small website and click Install. Your website is immediately available. The installation comes with two pages, 'Home' and 'About'. This is just an example to get you started. Change everything as you like. You can edit web pages in a web browser or text editor. Do what fits best into your workflow.

Edit web pages

If you want to edit web pages in a web browser, you can do this on your website at http://website/edit/. If you want to edit web pages on your computer, have a look inside your content folder. Give it a try. Open the file content/1-home/page.md. At the top of the page you can change Title and other page settings. Below you can change text and images. Here's an example:

---
Title: Home
---
