• Deployment: The theme can be run locally by navigating to the theme directory, installing the dependencies using bundle install, and starting the Jekyll server with jekyll serve.
• Posts: New posts can be created by adding a new markdown file in the _posts directory. The file can include configurations for the author, featured status, tags, and post image.
• Pages: New pages can be created by adding a new markdown file in the _pages directory.
