Instructions

Installation & Usage

Step 1 — Extract the Package

Extract the downloaded Velio ZIP file to a location on your computer.

Step 2 — Open the Template

Open index.html in a modern web browser to preview the homepage. For development, you can also run the folder through a local web server such as the Live Server extension in Visual Studio Code.

Step 3 — Customize Your Information

Open the HTML files and replace the demonstration content with your own:

• Name
• Introduction
• Biography
• Services
• Portfolio projects
• Project descriptions
• Resume information
• Blog posts
• Contact details
• Social media links

Step 4 — Replace Images

Open: assets/images/ Replace the supplied PNG placeholders with your own appropriately licensed images. The placeholders indicate the recommended source dimensions. Keep the corresponding aspect ratio where possible to preserve the intended layout.

Step 5 — Customize the Design

Open: assets/css/style.css The main design variables are located near the beginning of the stylesheet. You can customize:

• Colors
• Typography
• Spacing
• Borders
• Buttons
• Cards
• Navigation
• Responsive behavior

Step 6 — Customize Portfolio Filters

Portfolio projects use data-category values to determine their categories. For example: data-category="branding digital" The corresponding filter button can use: data-filter="branding" Multiple categories can be assigned by separating category names with spaces.

Step 7 — Configure the Contact Form

The included contact form performs front-end validation. It does not automatically send emails or store submissions. For a production website, connect the form to your preferred backend, email service or form provider. When implementing a backend, use server-side validation and appropriate spam protection.

• Page headings
