For Jekyll sites (GitHub Pages, custom Jekyll)
AI chatbot for Jekyll — embed in your default layout, GitHub Pages compatible
Jekyll powers thousands of GitHub Pages sites — personal blogs, project docs, university courses. Ashh.ai drops in via your _layouts/default.html or your _includes/head.html. Zero plugin install, GitHub Pages compatible (no jekyll-feed configuration headaches).
Embeds in your Jekyll head include
Add the Ashh script to _includes/head.html (or _layouts/default.html if your theme uses that pattern). The widget loads on every Jekyll-built page after the next jekyll build or GitHub Pages deploy.
Trained on your Jekyll posts + pages
Point Ashh at your sitemap (/sitemap.xml, generated by jekyll-sitemap plugin). We crawl every published post + page. New post merged to main? In the bot's knowledge by tomorrow.
GitHub Pages compatible
GitHub Pages' allowed-plugins list doesn't matter — Ashh is just a script tag. No jekyll-feed / jekyll-archives setup needed; the widget is independent of your Jekyll plugin set.
Universally theme-agnostic
Works in Minima (default), Just-the-docs, Hyde, minimal-mistakes, custom themes. The widget is a script tag — theme-agnostic.
Questions Jekyll sites (GitHub Pages, custom Jekyll) ask
Will it work with my GitHub Pages site?+
Yes. The widget is a script tag — it lives in your HTML, not your Jekyll plugin set. GitHub Pages' restrictions on plugins don't apply.
What about Jekyll on Netlify / Vercel / custom hosts?+
Same — works on every Jekyll deployment target. The widget is a CDN-loaded script; the host doesn't matter.
Does it integrate with Jekyll-Algolia / lunr.js search?+
Complementary. Algolia / Lunr is keyword search; Ashh is conversational Q&A. Many docs sites run both.
Can it work with a Jekyll site that uses Disqus comments?+
Yes — they coexist fine. The Ashh widget is bottom-right; Disqus comments live in the page flow. No DOM collision.
