Hey man, I found this repo through your post on Reddit. I think it's really great and I wanna add it to my site too.

My site is a simple jekyll blog. I've only written plain text posts in markdown so far, and I am unsure of how to add this into the 'About' page of my site. How would I go about adding this bookshelf to the 'About' page of my site?

If you could give me some steps to do that, I'd be thankful.

Hey, I'd be happy to help out.

If you are familiar with Jekyll you might benefit from seeing how I've set it up in my blog repo.

I'd have to clone your repo and try to see what's going, but I won't have time to do that right away. Hopefully tomorrow.

-- Side note: did you mean HackerNews instead of Reddit? I haven't posted on Reddit 😕

I made a PR to your blog repo to integrate the bookshelf. Let me know if you need any more help.

Hey Peter, sorry for the late reply, I've been busy with college tests.

Oh wow! Thank you so much for taking a look and helping me out! This is more than what I expected. I have spent some time studying the changes you made in your PR. While I don't understand it fully, I do think I understand the majority. It looks great on my site, and I think I will use this more.

Yeah, I might have found it on HackerNews instead haha, I spend so much time seeing cool links on Reddit that I mix the 2 sometimes.

Once again, thank you for your help.

Hey one more thing though, I think there seems to be some problem with linking bookshelf_macro.html to the final product. Because I'm adding more books, but the colours/sizes aren't showing up. It's just giving me a blank spine w/ no colour and books of a same size. Could you take a look?
