Download Jane theme for Hugo

I am looking for someone who can help me, pro bono, to: - set up this site using GitHub Pages - set up Hugo SSG (https://gohugo.io) using Jane (https://github.com/xianmin/hugo-theme-jane) as the theme - set up automatic building using GitHub actions perhaps using https://github.com/peaceiris/actions-hugo - set up Giscus (https://giscus.app) for comments (may need to fork theme, if so try to up a steam a PR also so a separate fork does not need to be maintained.) - set up banner art and profile picture (may need to fork theme, if so try to up a steam a PR also so a separate fork does not need to be maintained.) - set up SEO, RSS, favicon, Analytics, etc.

Background: I've been a technical writer for 9 years. 6 at Google, 3 as the only writer at an IoT startup.

I helped Corrily with their docs [1] in August. They were interested in readme.io. I wasn't keen on it because I had worked with Retool a few years back and had found readme.io lacking. But I was pleasantly surprised by how much readme.io has progressed since then! If you're looking for a documentation product that is very easy to update and mostly just works, then it's worth checking out.

On https://web.dev I was introduced to Eleventy. Eleventy [2] is now my go to. The documentation for Elecenty itself is very strangely organized and needs a refactor. But I have found that there is always a way to accomplish whatever I need, and usually elegantly.

Another project worth checking out is Docsy [3]. This is a Jekyll template specifically created for technical documentation.

Back at the IoT startup I had to set up the whole documentation system / tooling myself. I used Sphinx and deployed to Heroku. Haven't used Sphinx since then but I remember being satisfied with it back then.

I haven't used either of these, but I've heard good things about both https://github.com/google/docsy and https://thegooddocsproject.dev/. If you choose to use either of these, I'd love to hear about it. I have coworkers who contribute to both of them.
