News System

The website uses a custom news system based on Jekyll collections.

How it works

• _news/ contains all news items
• _includes/news displays the list of news
• layout: news controls individual pages

Add a news

1. Create file in _news file name must contain the date
2. Add title + date (optionally)
3. git commit and push

Example

---
layout: news
title: "Created a website"
date: 2026-06-11 17:24:05 +0200
categories: jekyll update

Important

• Categories are not mandatory
• Layout must be news, don’t change it
