To get started, install Jekyll, first. Additionally, make sure to install Yarn for efficient dependency management, including Bootstrap.

For best results, use PNG images on this site. We compress PNGs during the build process using pngquant to reduce file size without sacrificing quality.

Please avoid using relative URLs. Instead, always use absolute URLs by making use of Jekyll's variables. Relative URLs can cause problems and it's best to avoid them.

In Jekyll, you can use {{ site.url }}/foo which produce http://pactus.org/foo. Alternatively, you can use {{ site.baseurl }}/foo, which will produce an absolute URL for /foo based on the site language. For example, if the site language is Arabic, the URL will be http://pactus.org/ar/foo, and if the site language is Chinese, the URL will be http://pactus.org/zh/foo.

By using absolute URLs, you can ensure that all links and resources on the Pactus website will work correctly regardless of the language or location of the site visitor.

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that uses plain text formatting syntax to convert text into HTML, making it easy to read and write for web content.

Markdown linting helps ensure consistent style and formatting, detects syntax errors, improves readability, and maintains best practices in Markdown documents.

To lint Markdown files, you can use the mdl (MarkdownLint) command-line tool. This tool checks your Markdown files against a set of rules and provides feedback on any issues found.

To install mdl, first you need to install Ruby. Once you ensure Ruby installed on your system, you can install mdl by running:

gem install mdl

Then you can lint your Markdown files with the following command:

mdl --style=.mdlrc.rb ./content

This command will check all documents in the content folder for any linting issues and output them in the terminal.

Updating the main branch will automatically deploy this repository through deploy Github action.
