glitch-in-bio v0.0.4

Glitch in Bio!

Your links, your way. A link-in-bio app you can customize any way you want.

Direct traffic to your own Glitch-in-bio app in 3 steps:

1. Remix this app for your own, live version in seconds

Then click Preview at the bottom of this window and then Preview in new window to see the live app in its own window, with a free glitch.me domain ready to share.

📝 Make sure to log into Glitch to save your new app or else it will expire in 5 days.

2. Edit settings.json to add your own info and links

Replace the meta info, links and social sites we added for you in settings.json and you'll see your changes instantly updated in real time!

If you want to include images, upload them in assets and copy the URLs into your settings JSON too–make sure you have a theme selected that shows images like gallery or menu.

3. Choose a theme

To help you make the site your own we've included some themes. In settings.json you can enter glitch, gallery, or menu as the value for theme.

📝 If you want to see how these themes are made, look in the public/styles/themes directory! If you don't have a valid theme entered, the site will default to the styles outlined in style.css.

...or create your own!

Customize your site by updating custom-theme.css inside the public/styles/themes folder with CSS to update colors, fonts, or any other style rules. Update your theme in settings.json to custom-theme to have the app use those new rules.

📝 You can rename custom-theme.css, just make sure you use the new file name as your theme value in settings.json.

Other Tips & tricks

Get verified links by adding rel="me" to your anchor tags in layout/social.html like this for Mastodon:

<!-- Mastodon -->
{{#if settings.social.mastodon}}
<a
  aria-label="{{settings.name}} on Mastodon"
  href="{{settings.social.mastodon}}"
  tabindex="-1"
  rel="me"
>

What's in this project?

← README.md: That’s this file. You can delete it, or keep it handy so you don't lose the instructions.

← index.html: This is the main page template vite uses to build your site. You'll see the handlebars syntax for importing the data you specify in settings.json (built into the structures in layout/). You'll also find some tips on configuring the page in the HTML comments.

← settings.json: Settings for your name, links, images, and social media. The index.html page includes the data using the structures defined in layout/.

← layout/: Markup templates — you can edit every line of HTML or never even look at any of it. The data you specify in settings.json will be built into the page using the HTML in here using handlebars syntax (e.g. {{settings.name}}).

← public/styles/: Stylesheets for Glitch in Bio, including alternate themes. Change your theme in settings.json. You can create a new theme by adding a CSS file to this folder and specifying it using its name in the settings (e.g. glitch, gallery, menu, or whatever yours is called!)

← public/manifest.json and public/sw.js: These set your site up to function as a Progressive Web App (PWA)–if you add new assets (e.g. stylesheets) you can include them in the list in sw.js to cache your site for offline viewing.

← assets: Add images here and copy the links into settings.json to show them in your site.
