# Academic Project Page Template
> **Update (September 2025)**: This template has been modernized with better design, SEO, and mobile support. For the original version, see the [original-version branch](https://github.com/eliahuhorwitz/Academic-project-page-template/tree/original-version).

## Start using the template
To start using the template click on `Use this Template`.
The template uses html for controlling the content and css for controlling the style.
To edit the websites contents edit the `index.html` file. It contains different HTML "building blocks", use whichever ones you need and comment out the rest.
**IMPORTANT!** Make sure to replace the `favicon.ico` under `static/images/` with one of your own, otherwise your favicon is going to be a dreambooth image of me.

### Meta Tags
The template includes meta tags for better search engine visibility and social media sharing. These appear in the `<head>` section and help with:
