Astro Banner



It's hugely inspired by [Hugo](https://github.com/knadh/hugo-ink)'s Ink theme and strives to remain light, while providing the basis for a beautiful, minimal blog.



## Features

- __Minimal, Crisp, Markdown-Blog Ready__ always updated to Astro's latest (currently `2.x` release) under the hood.

- __Svelte Ready__ - In its effort to remain light-weight, performant, and more approachable from Astro's POV, Svelte is used for interactive components like the theme switcher

- __Modular__ - The structure is highly modular, with components doing just one job, and one job well.

- __Astro 2.0 Content Collection + Dynamic Pages__ - It's ready with Next.js like dynamic pages, to support a tag-based classification system with paginated results, all configurable

- __Dark Mode & Color Codes__ - It supports dark mode, and __6+__ color modes that's selected using `tailwind.config.js`. You can pass `THEME_KEY` with the `dev` or `build` script/commands ex: `THEME_KEY=purpleheart astro build/dev` to change the color theme being used. All the available themes can be found in [tailwind.theme.config.js](./tailwind.theme.config.js). To customize the blog section, add any of the Tailwind Typography's `prose-{color}` classes as referred [here](./src/components/Prose.astro)

- __Netlify CMS__ - Add/Edit/Update all the posts in the `/blog` directory by visiting `your-site.netlify.com/admin` ex: [astro-ink.netlify.app/admin](https://astro-ink.netlify.app/admin) with your Netlify credentials. It needs Netlify Identity(https://app.netlify.com/sites/your-site/settings/identity#registration

) and Git Gateway(https://app.netlify.com/sites/your-site/settings/identity#services) enabled.

- __Future Posts__(with Github Actions) - Create posts in the `/src/drafts` directory with a future `date` in the `YYYY-MM-DD` format, and let a specially crafted [Github Action](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/ssg-publish-drafts) take care of auto-publishing it on your specified date. You can configure the check interval in [Github Action](https://github.com/one-aalam/astro-ink/blob/main/.github/workflows/main.yml).

- __Client-Side Search__ - Allow your users get to your blog posts quickly with client-side search feat. Lunr.js

- __View counter feat. Redis/Upstash Redis__ - Configure your Redis host, place it's connection URL in your hosting provider's console (Vercel, Netlify, etc.) or in a `.env` file(local development), un-comment the connection code [here](./src/pages/api/blog/views/[slug].ts) and deploy. Your site's powered with a dynamic views counter. See [.env.example](./.env.example) to understand the different environment values you need to configure.

- __Media Page with YT channel support__ - Easily show your YT channel content on the media page by just putting your channel id in [config](./src/config.ts) file's `ytChannelId` constant. Optionally, disable the image thumbnails from your YT channel's video listing by setting `USE_MEDIA_THUMBNAIL` to `false`.

- __Author Cards__ - Easily add post based or site-wide Author cards, that include a Twitter follow button by setting `USE_AUTHOR_CARD` to `true` inside  [config](./src/config.ts) file.

- __Themed image overlay__ - You can optionally enable overlays, that can add a nice themed gradient on top of your post images by setting `USE_POST_IMG_OVERLAY` to `true` inside [config](./src/config.ts) file.



## How to start?

*Just clone this template*, and start working from your clone. You have all the common NPM commands at your disposal like `dev`, `build`, etc. Refer [package.json](./package.json) to see a list of all the available commands.



**Note:** Use `npx degit one-aalam/astro-ink` to clone the template without any of the `git` history



**Note: This template genrates `server` (SSR ready) output by default. If you want `static` builds**

  - change `output` to `static` from `server` in [astro.config.js](./astro.config.mjs)

  - remove `adapter: vercel()`

  - remove the views counter [API](./src/pages/api/blog/views/[slug].json.ts)

  - set `USE_VIEW_STATS` to `false` inside [config.ts](./src/config.ts)



**Note: Before running `npm run dev` for the very first time -** 

- create a `.env` file by running `mv .env.example .env` (if you're on a Linux distro or Mac)

- set the `SITE_URI` variable as `SITE_URI=http://localhost:4321` (_where 4321 is the port at which your project is running_)

## Wanna learn Astro while building Ink?

This theme was initially built with first an alpha, and then a beta version of the `Astro` Framework. If you're just starting with `Astro`, you can actually learn `Astro` while building this very theme by following a series of blogs I've written that teaches you Astro ground-up!
