Template Details
hexo-theme-aero is a Hexo blog theme with an overall Frutiger Aero style; the README states that its design is inspired by system interfaces such as Windows Vista and Windows 7. The theme is released under the MIT license, and the author provides a demo site and screenshots.
In terms of features, the theme supports responsive layout, code highlighting, LaTeX formula rendering via MathJax, music playback, and PJAX loading optimization, and allows customizing theme colors and wallpapers in source/css/_variables.scss. Code highlighting requires enabling highlight and hljs in the site root _config.yml; MathJax requires adding mathjax: enable to the post front-matter.
For usage, after cloning the theme via git clone into themes/aero, set theme: aero in the site _config.yml, and configure social media links, music playback, etc. in the theme directory's _config.yml. For dependencies, install hexo-renderer-sass and replace hexo-renderer-marked with hexo-renderer-markdown-it. The README mentions that some style designs reference the 7.css project.
