Configuring Photon

Photon’s config is intentionally thin so the upstream single-page portfolio shell stays intact. Three of its four keys are non-default in this demo’s demo-config.json.

tagline

Hero supporting copy that continues the #header headline. Upstream Photon’s h1 reads “Hi, I’m <Name>” — this port appends the tagline right after the comma, so this demo’s value, “a gallery-style portfolio for Dune”, renders as “Hi, I’m Photon, a gallery-style portfolio for Dune.” It’s lowercase on purpose to keep that sentence readable. Empty falls back to the site description; if both are empty the headline trails off mid-sentence, so seed one before you screenshot.

avatar

Optional image URL reserved for a future portrait treatment in the header. Left empty in this demo — the current #header markup doesn’t render it yet, so setting a URL here has no visible effect until that lands; leave it blank rather than seeding a value nothing displays.

show_html5up_credit

Set to true. The #footer copyright list appends a “Design: HTML5 UP” line, linking to html5up.net/photon, which is required while this port stays under CC BY. No dark mode or color schemes — Photon upstream is one light portfolio design.

footer_text

Set to “Photon Demo”, replacing the site title in the #footer copyright line so a long product name doesn’t crowd the single-page footer next to the credit link.
