About This Website

Technology

This website is built with:

Jekyll 4 - A static site generator that transforms markdown and data files into HTML
Bootstrap 5.3.3 - Modern CSS framework for responsive design
Bootswatch (Darkly theme) - Styled Bootstrap theme
Bootstrap Icons - Comprehensive icon library

All pages are written in Markdown for easy editing. Content like publications, news, and team members are stored as YAML data files in the _data/ folder, making updates straightforward without touching code.

Repository

Custom research experiment pages
Interactive team map
Filterable news list
Bootswatch Darkly theme import

Thanks to the Allan Lab for open-sourcing the original template.
