    files:
      - '**/*'

      - node_modules/**/*

Edit content

You can change the website's content by editing .yaml files in content/ directory:

profile.yaml

Follow existing convention to provide your profile information, skills & tools.

Have fun messing with things, because that's what developers do.

projects.yaml

For each project you can provide:

| Parameter | Value | Is required? | | ----------- | ------------------------------ | ------------ | | name | Name of the project | yes | | url | URL of the project | no | | description | Project's description | no | | status | Either in progress or live | no | | tags | List of tags | no | | icon | Either github or website | no | | image | Path to the image | no |

work-history.yaml

For each entry you can provide:

| Parameter | Value | Is required? | | --------- | ---------------------------- | ------------ | | company | Name of the company | yes | | period | Start / End date | no | | position | Your position at the company | no | | url | URL of the company | no |

social.yaml

List of your social media accounts. Please just fill the url parameter or leave it empty.

Do ~~not~~ add custom items to the list.

Enable email notifications

Contact form is integrated with Formspree. To enable form submissions to your e-mail, please sign up for a Formspree account and create a new form in your dashboard.

Once you do it, you'll get your unique endpoint - please add it to gatsby-config.js, within a siteMetadata object.

Configuration

Here is the list of configuration options you can set in gatsby-config.js:

module.exports = {
  siteMetadata: {
    description: "Personal page of John Doe",
    locale: "en",
    title: "John Doe",
    formspreeEndpoint: "https://formspree.io/f/{your-id}",
  },
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: "@joe-fuentes/gatsby-theme-intro",
      options: {
        basePath: "/",
        contentPath: "content/",
        showThemeLogo: true,
        theme: "classic",
      },
    },
  ],
}

After modyfying gatsby-config.js it may be required to restart gatsby develop process.

• The siteMetadata section is responsible for SEO settings.
• By modifying basePath parameter you can run the website on different URL (e.g. https://mydomain.com/profile). It may be useful when integrating with existing Gatsby site.
• By setting showThemeLogo to false you can hide the Intro logo in the footer area.
• Change the theme parameter to load different color variant. Please refer to the list below for available values.

Available color variants

| Name | Preview | | ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | blue | click here | | bright-green | click here | | bright-orange | click here | | bright-red | click here | | classic (default) | click here | | dark-blue | click here | | dark-green | click here | | dark-pink | click here | | gh-inspired | click here | | warm-red | click here |

Customization

Component shadowing

You can use Gatsby component shadowing technique to customize the theme.

• All components are located in src/components directory.
• All parameters accepted by components are defined using PropTypes. You can find types definitions in one centeral src/types location.
• Code you want to overwrite should be placed within src/@joe-fuentes/gatsby-theme-intro/ directory.

Please refer to the official documentation to learn more.

Custom color variant

As theme parameter in theme configuration (gatsby-config.js) you can pass either the name of the existing theme or an object of colors.

Example:

module.exports = {
  (...)
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: "@joe-fuentes/gatsby-theme-intro",
      options: {
        (...)
        theme: {
          'back': '#edf0f3',
          'front': '#2b3137',
          'lead': '#2781ed',
          'lead-text': '#ffffff',
          'line': '#ced9e3',
          'skill-1': '#405060',
          'skill-2': '#fc8732',
          'skill-3': '#2ebc50',
        },
      },
    },
  ],
  (...)
}

Please remember, that after modyfying gatsby-config.js file it may be required to restart gatsby develop process.
