Features

Installation

To add tabi to you existing Zola site:

  1. 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

  1. Enable the theme in your config.toml:
theme = "tabi"
  1. Set a title in your config.toml:
title = "Your Site Title"
  1. Configure code block highlighting in your config.toml:
[markdown]
highlight_code = true
highlight_theme = "css"
  1. 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"
  1. If you want an introduction section (see screenshot above), add these lines to content/_index.md:
[extra]
header = {title = "Hello! I'm tabi~", img = "img/main.webp", img_alt = "Your Name" }

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…".

  1. If you want a multilingual site, you will need to set up each language. In config.toml, set the title and taxonomies for each language, like:
[languages.es]
title = "~/tabi"
taxonomies = [{name = "tags", feed = true}]

You will need an _index.{language_code}.md per language for each section (e.g. /blog or /projects) that you want to enable in that language.

The same is true for individual posts, which should have the exact same name as the default language, with an extra .{code} before the extension (e.g. the Spanish version of security.md would be security.es.md).

This configuration allows the language switcher to take the user to the translation of the current URL. If a translation doesn't exist, the 404 page will be displayed, with an explanation in each language set in the config.

To learn more about multilingual support, see the Frequently Asked Questions.
