3. Run the development server:

   This will start a local development server at http://localhost:8080.

Usage

Changing Content

• Home Page: Edit index.md

• Blog Posts: Add or edit markdown files in posts
• GitHub Repositories: The repositories are fetched dynamically from your GitHub account. Ensure your GitHub username is correctly set in .eleventy.

Theme Toggle

The website supports multiple themes (dark mode, light mode, pastel mode, eye-soothing mode). Users can toggle between themes using the button in the header.

Back to Top Button

A "Back to Top" button appears when the user scrolls down the page. Clicking this button will smoothly scroll the user back to the top of the page.
