If you want do all by your self and make custom gallery and use many section, you need follow https://recitale.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration.html#gallery-settings-yaml

But if is just for make gallery with only picture you can generate it automatically.

You need

  1. Create a folder

  2. Put all pics you want

  3. Create settings.yaml file in the folder

  4. Add title key in folder/settings.yaml. Optionally provide a cover and date key, otherwise they are inferred from the oldest file in the gallery.

  5. Use recitale autogen -d folder

Generate

In a folder containing the root settings.yaml file, simply do:

recitale

A build folder will be created in the current directory, containing an index.html, static files (css & js) and pictures.

In a root folder launch this command:

recitale preview

Then, you can check your website at http://localhost:9000

recitale can upload your website with rsync, to do so, run:
