Welcome to Quartz 4

Quartz is a fast, batteries-included static-site generator that transforms Markdown content into fully functional websites. Thousands of students, developers, and teachers are showcase to publish personal notes, websites, and digital gardens to the web.

🪴 Get Started

Quartz requires at least Node v20 and npm v9.3.1 to function correctly. Ensure you have this installed on your machine before continuing.

Then, in your terminal of choice, enter the following commands line by line:

git clone https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz.git
cd quartz
npm i
npx quartz create

This will guide you through initializing your Quartz with content. Once you've done so, see how to:

  1. authoring content in Quartz
  2. configuration Quartz's behaviour
  3. Change Quartz's layout
  4. build Quartz
  5. Sync your changes with setting up your GitHub repository
  6. hosting Quartz online
