How to make changes

1. Edit the file you want to change (use the GitHub web editor or clone locally)

No npm, no build tools, no technical setup required.

File reference

$3

- font-face.css -- Declares which font files to load and at which weights
- neusaNextProWide-*.woff2 -- Heading font (weights: 300, 400, 500, 700)
- proximaNova-*.woff2 -- Body text font (weights: 400, 500, 600, 700)

To change a font: replace the .woff2 file with a new one (keep the same filename), or update font-face.css to point to a different file.

Key CSS variables you can change:

``css
:root {
--sl-font: "proximaNova", ...; / Body font family /
--sl-content-width: 60rem; / Main content area width /
--sl-sidebar-width: 15rem; / Left sidebar width /
}
`

The file also controls:
- Heading font family
- Mermaid diagram container styling (border, shadow, background)
- Code block appearance (rounded corners, terminal-style header)
- Aside/callout box styling

The SVG file displayed in the sidebar header. Replace it with any SVG file using the same filename.

Custom footer with social media links (Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube). Edit the HTML to change links, add new icons, or update styling.
