Tips

A quick guide to Rico.

01. Is it really free?

Yep, completely free! Building and deploying to GitHub Pages costs nothing, and you get a github.io domain too.

02. How do I edit later?

Grab your config.json from the ZIP or your repo, then load it via 'Upload JSON' on the home screen anytime.

03. GitHub deployment isn't working

Make sure your [username].github.io repo is set to public. For security, Rico doesn't touch private repos. If you'd rather keep it private, you can upload the ZIP yourself, or flip it to public just while deploying.

04. Can I customise the colours?

Sure can. Open style.css and tweak the values in the :root block at the top.

05. Page not updating?

First, check your repo to see if the build finished. If it did, try Ctrl + Shift + R to clear the cache.

06. Any copyright issues?

Rico is built on open-source. Feel free to use it, just please keep the with Rico credit at the bottom.

07. Which language should I use?

Most AI/CS portfolios go with English — it opens up more international opportunities.
