## Changes
The following are the major changes I made compared to the upstream.

### [Hexo](https://gitlab.com/pages/hexo) site
- Updated [.gitlab-ci.yml](.gitlab-ci.yml) to use the latest version of [Node.js](https://hub.docker.com/_/node/) in Alpine docker image.
- [All packages](package.json) are installed from their respective master branch, instead of npm published version.
- Removed unused packages, [hexo-generator-category](https://github.com/hexojs/hexo-generator-category) and [hexo-renderer-stylus](https://github.com/hexojs/hexo-renderer-stylus) from the [default packages](https://github.com/hexojs/hexo-starter/blob/571320ba41a83e065d7560e050eb3fa63ad74a57/package.json#L9-L17).
- Replaced the bundled Landscape theme with Typing theme.
- Add `lastUpdated` to the front-matter to manually set updated time of a post, instead of using `post.updated`.
  * This is no longer necessary, thanks to [`updated_option`](https://github.com/hexojs/hexo/pull/4278) feature.

### [Chameleon theme](/themes/chameleon)
Chameleon is a fork of [Typing](https://github.com/geekplux/hexo-theme-typing) theme, rewrote from scratch with the following changes/features:

- [sanitize.css](https://github.com/csstools/sanitize.css/) and [autoprefixer](https://github.com/csstools/sanitize.css/) for consistent cross-browser styling.
- Utilise [relative length](https://www.w3schools.com/CSSref/css_units.asp) instead of absolute length in the css.
- [`prefers-color-scheme`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-color-scheme) to apply light/dark theme according to the OS preference.
- Add a [Copy](https://clipboardjs.com/) button to each code block.
- Removed jQuery, fancyBox, web analytics, comment plugins, donation links and [typo.css](https://github.com/sofish/typo.css).
- Homepage shows recent posts and tags.
