Adding Projects and Publications
Projects and publications can be added easily. Projects can be classified into two folders: creations or contributions, like being a leading actor or a supporting cast member in a play. Use the following command to add projects:
hugo add projects/TYPEname-of-project.md
For publications, create them similarly to projects. Include all relevant content such as papers or articles.
Template Parameters

Internationalization
This theme supports multiple languages. Use the defaultContentLanguage parameter in config.toml to set the preferred language. The template currently supports English and French.
Using the CMS with Netlify CMS
One of the killer features of this setup is the integration with Netlify CMS, providing a user-friendly admin experience without requiring deployment to Netlify. The full integration and guide can be accessed in the exampleSite/static/admin directory.

- Ensure you have cloned the correct repository.
- Check if Hugo is properly installed on your machine.
