Template Details

This is a Hexo blog theme. The repository description states that it is based on hexo-theme-apollo and adds tag-related functionality on top of it. The theme is placed into the Hexo site's themes/apollo directory via git clone, then enabled through the site _config.yml's theme field.

The installation process also requires installing several Hexo plugins for the site: hexo-renderer-jade, hexo-generator-feed, hexo-generator-sitemap, hexo-browsersync, and hexo-generator-archive. Among these, hexo-generator-archive is used to display all posts on the archive page; you need to set archive_generator's per_page to 0 in the configuration and disable the yearly, monthly, and daily groupings.

The tag cloud feature is not implemented within the theme; the README points to the third-party plugin hexo-tag-cloud, which must be integrated separately according to its instructions. To update the theme, enter the themes/apollo directory and run git pull. The repository was last updated in 2017, and the README does not provide further configuration options, compatibility scope, or maintenance status information.

Usage conditions & limitations

Free to use · keep license notice

This entry covers the free version in the public repository under the MIT license; the free scope is the code of this version and does not mean that external services or third-party assets are free.

Must comply with when using

  • You are allowed to use, modify, commercialize, and distribute the code of this version for free.
  • When distributing copies or substantial portions of the code, retain the original author's copyright notice and the full MIT license notice.
  • The code is provided as is; warranties and limitations of liability are governed by the original license and applicable law.

Additional costs & items to verify

  • Using this theme requires additionally installing plugins such as the jade renderer, feed, sitemap, browsersync, and archive in the Hexo site; otherwise some features will not work properly.
  • The tag cloud feature is not implemented within the theme and requires separately integrating the third-party plugin hexo-tag-cloud, following that project's instructions and license.
  • The theme must be cloned into the Hexo site's themes/apollo directory and the site _config.yml's theme must be set to apollo to enable it.
  • To display all posts on the archive page, you must rely on the hexo-generator-archive plugin, set archive_generator's per_page to 0, and disable the yearly, monthly, and daily groupings.
  • Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked against their respective licenses; the code's MIT license alone is not sufficient to determine this.
  • External services such as domains, hosting, databases, payments, or AI may incur separate charges.

How this score is calculated

Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.
