Readme

• About me:”index.md”

• Revise the sidebar.html in include to change look of the sidebar

• Publications: “Publications.md”

• Project Portfolio: the markdown files in the “posts” folder. To turn off “read more”, go to the includes folder, find home.html, delete the “<div …read more…” line
  • Categories: accessibility, aibigdata, equity, resilience, transitnewmobility, travel behavior
  • To view all posts:https://jacobyan0.github.io/archive
  • detailed Jekyllrb guide on posts: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/posts/
  • Projects are organized by nav.html (in the includes and projects folders)
  • [Future] Make good use of excerpt_separator

  

• Teaching: “teaching.md”

• Media: “Media.md”

• News: “News.md”

• Note1: Layout of all pages should be “page” except for posts

• Note2: all the content of a layout html is “included” when displayed the web page. So “layout” works more like “out-include” (i.e., content & include stuff in layout) and “includes” works more like “inner-include” (i.e., include stuff in include/xx.html file + other content of the html in development)

• Use Jekyllrb server for testing of web pages

[Maybe useful later] Difference between page and post

• A post filename contains the title and the date of the post. An invalid date in the filename causes an error.

• Posts are comparable objects, which means two posts can be compared. The comparison is made by the post date and the post slugs.

• The generated default relative URL of a post and a page are different (e.g. /2000/01/01/my-post.html and /about.html).

• A page can be placed anywhere but a post can only be placed under _posts folder.

• A post has more data out of the box for use in Liquid templates (title, URL, date, id, categories, next, previous, tags, content).

• A post has a unique id.

• A post represents a blog post (so it is used to easily create a blog post). A page represents a website page.
