Features

By configuring several things in _config.yml and in the front matter YAML of your article in jekyll, you can offer several things for your reader in the instant version. These are:

  • A header image, that will বী by default your site logo, or will use an image specified in your front matter.
  • instantfeedback, that will allow your readers to like images used in your article
  • credit, that will append the credit related texts at the end of the instant article, in case you have used materials by others.
