Could you provide more information? Which files did you create and what did you put in each file?

I took up the default helloworld.md file from hexo, and added tags in front-matter `

title: Hello World tags:

and I created a tags folder in source directory of hexo root project folder. Next I created a index.md inside that folder with following font-matter `

title: tags type: "tags" date: 2017-04-20 18:29:43

` still when I go to blogUrl/tags , I don't see list of all tags. You can find source code here https://github.com/rishabh1403/rishabh1403.github.io . Thanks for this awesome theme

You just created a blank page. Your tags won't appear there automagically...

The simplest approach is to add the link to the archive page of each tag in the markdown of your tags page, eg:

---
title: tags
type: "tags"
date: 2017-04-20 18:29:43
---
[Example](/tags/example/)
[Foo](/tags/foo/)
[Bar](/tags/bar/)

If you want to do it dynamically, you will have to

  1. Create a view in layout/tags.ejs
  2. Add your code in with the site.tags variable
  3. Create a new page with hexo new page "tags"
  4. Add layout:"tags" in the front-matter of source/tags/index.md file.
