📁 How to Submit a Chat

1. Fork this repository

Click the Fork button (top right of this page) and clone your fork to your machine:

git clone https://github.com/yasir13001/ChatSharing.git
cd ChatSharing

2. Create a new file in `_posts/`

Use the format: 📄 _posts/YYYY-MM-DD-your-title.md

Example:

_posts/2025-07-15-funny-dog-facts.md

3. Add the required front matter

Each post must start with this front matter:

---
layout: post
title: "Funny Dog Facts"
date: 2025-07-15
author: yourgithubusername
tags: [chatgpt, humor, dogs]
---

Then add your conversation content in Markdown:

**User:**  
Tell me a funny fact about dogs.

**Assistant:**  
Some dogs can actually smell your emotions. So if you’re sad, your dog might try to comfort you... unless it’s a Chihuahua. 😅

bundle install
bundle exec jekyll serve

Then go to: http://localhost:4000/ChatSharing
