BTCPay Server Blog

Based on the VuePress blog plugin.

Build the blog locally

In order to build the website locally, you'll need Node.js >= 14 (or basically the latest LTS version). A prerequisite for the setup-deps.sh script is jq.

The setup is straight forward:

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Serve locally
npm start

Text Highlights

There are three types of text highlights that can be used to display different colored boxes.

A green box displaying a friendly tip:

:::tip
foo
:::

A yellow box with a cautious warning:

:::warning
foo
:::

A red box with a clear danger, you can also add a title foo to any container:

:::danger foo
bar
:::

SEO improvements

We are using the Vuepress SEO plugin to add relevant meta tags to the site and individual pages.

To improve the meta attributes of a specific page, you can add them as YAML frontmatter like this: (see the WooCommerce page for an example)
