📄 Configuration

Basic Configuration

90% of LiveTerm's configurations are done through the config.json file.

Themes

You can find several pre-configured themes in themes.json, and you can replace the colors in config.json with the theme color you like! The themes are based on the themes on this website.

For a better preview of the themes, checkout the images in the demo folder.

Favicons

Favicons are located in public/, along with the other files you may want to upload to your website. I used this website to generate favicons.

Banner

You may also want to change the output of the banner command. To do that, simply paste your generated banner in src/utils/bin/commands.ts. I used this website to generate my banner.

🌐 Deploy on Vercel

The easiest way to deploy a Next.js app is to use the Vercel Platform from the creators of Next.js.

You can install vercel cli and follow the instruction here.

You can also connect your github account to vercel and have vercel automatically deploy the github repository for you.
