If you want to run the server locally clone the repo and install jekyll:

https://jekyllrb.com/

Then add the following lines to the Gemfile:

gem 'jekyll-sitemap'
gem 'jekyll-paginate'
gem 'jekyll-admin', group: :jekyll_plugins

Before running the command

bundle exec jekyll serve

you might have to delete the Gemfile.lock.

Be carefull you should not push the modifications to the Gemfile on the repo when you add your post.

When pushing, only add the files you modified '.md', '.css', images etc..

TODO

Julien R: I have no idea. For now, Julien P granted me access to the repository as collaborator. Yet, I see only Cédric and I as collaborators, and 25 unidentified members that I don't trace back to flowersteam either. By default, you can send your blog to me and I update the website.

You can either host your blog (1) outside of this website or (2) on this website.

For option (1), follow step 1 and 2. Also check step 4 for the tags.

For option (2), all steps (1 to 5) may be of interest to you.

All posts live in _posts/. Create a new Markdown file named:

_posts/YYYY-MM-DD-your-post-slug.md

The date prefix controls the publication date and sort order. The slug becomes part of the URL unless overridden by permalink.

Every post starts with a YAML front matter block between --- delimiters.

For posts that redirect to an external URL (e.g. a Google Site or project page), omit summary, categories, permalink, use_math, and thumbnail, and add external_url instead:

---
layout: post
title: 'Your Post Title' (to change)
date: 2026-04-14 (to change)
external_url: https://your-external-site.com (to change)
tags: [human-autotelic-learning, developmental-learning] (to change)
authors:
- name: 'First Author' (to change)
  link: https://first-author-website.com (to change)
  next: ' and '
- name: 'Last Author' (to change)
  link: https://last-author-website.com (to change)
  next: ''

Each entry in authors has three keys:

Store post images in a dedicated subdirectory:

images/posts/YYYY-MM-DD-your-post-slug/

Reference them in the post with an absolute path:

![Alt text](/images/posts/2026-02-27-phylolm/my-figure.png)
*Figure caption goes here.*

For more control over layout and captions, use the HTML pattern used in other posts:

<div align="center" style="margin-bottom:40px">
  <img src="/images/posts/YYYY-MM-DD-your-post-slug/my-figure.png" width="75%" alt="Alt text" />
  <div>
    <sub style="display: block; line-height: 1.5em">
      <i>Figure caption here.</i>
    </sub>
  </div>
</div>

Use existing tags when possible to ensure posts appear under the right theme pages.
