I didn't realize you could do that. Use the EbookFoundation favicon

Hi @eshellman,

I have a quick question regarding contributing to the website. I noticed that it's built using Jekyll, but I’m having trouble locating the index.md or home page to modify. Additionally, when I try to run the website locally, it doesn’t appear as it does in production.

Could you please guide me on how to:
Properly run the site locally so that it matches the live version.
Locate the main entry point (e.g., index.md or equivalent) for making contributions like adding a favicon.

Hey @eshellman, Since the repo doesn’t have any assets folder or HTML files, what would be the best way to add a favicon? Should I create an assets folder or modify the markdown front matter?

Ajay is trying it in #11603 Collaboration is highly encouraged here!

@azamshaikh1103 Hey! You can check how to add a favicon from the minimal theme website here https://github.com/pages-themes/minimal. Also go through this PR #11603 maybe we can pair program:)

Thanks for the response! I'll definitely check out the link and the PR to see how the minimal theme handles favicons. Pair programming sounds awesome—I'd love to collaborate on this! Let me dive into the resources, and I’ll reach out once I have a better understanding.

Looking forward to working together on this!

@Ajay-singh1 Hey, I created new file head.html inside _includes folder and linked the favicon.ico
but I'm struggling to run this code.

can u pls help me run this code locally?

P.S, using a temp favicon, I'll change it

@azamshaikh1103 To run this locally you need to have jekyll installed on your local system and some gem files then you run the jekyll server and you are good to go you can look for how to do it using AI tools like chatgpt etc.
