This pull request improves the documentation to clarify the recommended
way to create a new site using the al-folio template, emphasizing the
use of the "Use this template" button instead of forking. It explains
the differences between the two approaches, highlights common pitfalls
with forking, and provides guidance for users who have already forked
the repository.
Documentation improvements regarding repository creation:
* Added a prominent section in `README.md` explaining why "Use this
template" is preferred over forking, including step-by-step instructions
and advice for users who have already forked.
* Updated `QUICKSTART.md` to strongly recommend using the "Use this
template" button, clarified the steps for creating a new repository, and
included tips for users who have already forked by mistake.
* Added a new section in `INSTALL.md` detailing the differences between
using the template and forking, common pitfalls, and best practices for
contributing.

This pull request introduces several documentation improvements and adds
comprehensive Copilot and agent instruction files to the al-folio
repository. The most significant changes are the addition of
repository-wide and path-specific Copilot instructions, updates to agent
documentation to reference these instructions, and improvements to the
documentation structure and clarity regarding file purposes and
workflows.
**Copilot and Agent Instruction Enhancements:**
- Added a new `.github/copilot-instructions.md` file providing detailed,
repository-wide setup, build, CI/CD, troubleshooting, and file format
guidance for Copilot coding agents.
- Introduced `.github/instructions/bibtex-bibliography.instructions.md`
with specific instructions for editing and validating BibTeX files,
including custom keywords, formatting rules, and integration with
Jekyll-Scholar.
- Updated agent documentation files (`customize.agent.md`,
`docs.agent.md`) to reference the new Copilot instruction files and
explain their purpose and usage for both repository-wide and
path-specific scenarios.

**Documentation Structure and Clarity Improvements:**
- Clarified and reorganized the documentation file list in agent files,
removing references to deprecated or merged files (e.g.,
`MAINTENANCE.md`, `ACCESSIBILITY.md`) and updating descriptions to
reflect current usage.

- Enhanced documentation on the purpose and application of each
documentation file, and added detailed explanations of Copilot
instruction files and their role in project development.
**Workflow and Validation Updates:**
- Updated references and descriptions for GitHub Actions workflows in
agent documentation to include the Copilot environment setup and clarify
pre-commit and CI/CD requirements.

- Corrected references for accessibility guidance, now directing users
to `TROUBLESHOOTING.md` instead of the removed `ACCESSIBILITY.md`.
These changes collectively improve the onboarding experience for both
human contributors and AI agents, ensuring consistent adherence to
project conventions and reducing errors.

Fixes#3168. (Implemented by [jules.google](https://jules.google).)
This commit resolves issues with footnote and citation styling in
Distill posts, particularly ensuring that pop-up contents and the
numbers themselves respect the site's light/dark theme via shadow DOM
style definitions.
Key changes:
1. **`d-hover-box` Internal Styling (template.v2.js):**
The `<style>` tag within the `d-hover-box` component's template
in `assets/js/distillpub/template.v2.js` has been updated.
Styles for `.panel` (the main pop-up container) now define:
- `background-color: var(--global-card-bg-color);`
- `border: 1px solid var(--global-divider-color);`
- `color: var(--global-text-color);` (for default text)
- Links within the panel are styled with
`color: var(--global-theme-color);` and
`color: var(--global-hover-color);` on hover.
This ensures pop-up content is correctly themed from within its
shadow DOM.
2. **Footnote/Citation Number Color (template.v2.js):**
The hardcoded `hsla(206, 90%, 20%, 0.7)` color previously used for
footnote numbers (in `d-footnote` template) and citation numbers
(in `d-cite` template) in `assets/js/distillpub/template.v2.js`
has been replaced with `color: var(--global-theme-color);`.
3. **Cleaned `_sass/_distill.scss`:**
Removed the (now redundant) global CSS overrides for `d-hover-box`
from `_sass/_distill.scss`, as these styles are now correctly
encapsulated within the `d-hover-box` component itself.
These changes ensure that all aspects of Distill footnotes and
citations (numbers, pop-up background, pop-up text, and links within
pop-ups) are styled using theme-aware CSS variables, providing
correct visual appearance and readability in both light and dark modes.

Again, I saw this version problem with current version of our docker
image. Supposedly, there is some json package problem which I dealt
with.
But here is the overall solution to this problem for whoever is having
it.

Update CUSTOMIZE.md to include steps to deploy al-folio on Netlify.

I added a [Remote Development
Containers](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/devcontainers/tutorial)
in Visual Studio Code (VSCode).
Lots of people like to develop in Containers to have a clean system.
With this PR, it is possible to work with al-folio without any
installation (except for VS Code, its Remote Dev Container extension,
and Docker).
Once you've opened the `al-folio` repository, a prompt will appear
requesting to reopen the project within a container.
<img width="541" alt="grafik"
src="https://github.com/alshedivat/al-folio/assets/1998723/2963446f-8e42-4df1-9e8c-22691d78b7e4">
Upon doing so, Jekyll will automatically start within the container and
prompt you to open the website's preview sidebar directly in VSCode or
using your Browser. Additionally, it installs extensions for `liquid`
and Prettier (`npx prettier`). Files are formatted using
`al-folios`-prettier settings (`.prettierrc`) to streamline pull request
submission.
Additionally, the performance seems to be much better compared to the
`docker-compose`setup, see #2333.
