The startup template for Jekyll Theme Chirpy.
When installing the jekyll-theme-chirpy through RubyGem, Jekyll can only read files in the folders _includes, _layout, _sass and assets, as well as a small part of variables of the file _config.yml from the theme's gem (use the command bundle info --path jekyll-theme-chirpy to locate). To fully use all the features of jekyll-theme-chirpy, you also need to copy other files/directories and site variables from the theme's gem to your Jekyll site. This will be boring, so we extract all the other required things of the theme's gem to help you quickly use jekyll-theme-chirpy.

@import {{ site.theme }}
// add your style belowWhen adding or deleting files in the _tabs folder, you need to complete Custom Stylesheet first, and then add a new line before @import:
$tab-count: {{ site.tabs | size | plus: 1 }};See the jekyll-theme-chirpy's deployment instructions. Note that in order to use GitHub Actions caching to speed up the deployment, you should add the Gemfile.lock file to your repository.
Please note that files and directories in this project may change as the jekyll-theme-chirpy is updated. When updating, please ensure that the file directory structure of your Jekyll site is the same as that of this project.
