Mastering the Owner Configuration

The heart of Echofolio is _data/owner.yml. This file allows you to control almost every aspect of your site without touching a line of HTML.

The owner.yml Structure

1. Identity

Configure your personal brand:

name: "Alex Doe"
tagline: "Full Stack Developer"
avatar: "assets/img/me.jpg"
bio_short: "Building digital experiences."

2. Social Links

Add your profiles. Leaving a link empty hides the icon:

socials:
github: "https://github.com/alexdoe"
twitter: "" # Hidden
linkedin: "https://linkedin.com/in/alexdoe"

3. Skills Matrix

Define your tech stack using Devicon class names:

skills:
- category: "Frontend"
items:
- name: "React"
icon: "devicon-react-original"

4. UI Customization

Rename sections to match your voice:

ui:
contact_title: "Let's Talk"
projects_title: "My Work"

This data-driven approach keeps your content clean and your code maintainable.
