What’s is Hexo ?
according to the official introduction its a blog framework, have more than 20k forks and large user base.
“A fast, simple & powerful blog framework”
The deployment/usage is quite strightforward but not that easy to find ways to manage the custom domain in github pages and the “Read More” in minos theme
The website you are visting is built on top Hexo and Minos theme and hosting in github pages with a CNAME for dns resolvtion
How we made it
- Generate the CNAME file in source directory
echo "ACTUAL Website DOMAIN" > source/CNAME
if the site is deployed to github before without the CNAME file, need to delete public folder otherwise the change won’t take into effect
then update your dns server make it point to the desied github site, for me its
$ dig www.ystacks.com

- Enable the ReadMore for the posts
add <!---more ---> section in the post articles, and whatever above it would be present as the abstract in the list page like below
That’s it.
