MIT license, permitting free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution

Build tooling derived from gohugo-amp, templates from hugo-nuo, and styles based on hugo-lamp

Template Details

hugo-lamp-plus is a Hugo theme hosted on GitHub, positioned as a lightweight, responsive template for blogs. Both the repository description and the README emphasize only "light, responsive" and provide no further details about layouts, styles, or feature modules.

The theme is installed into a Hugo site's themes directory as a Git submodule; the README gives the commands as creating the themes directory with mkdir and then running git submodule clone pointing to this repository. The documentation file docs/guide.md covers two areas: content editing, including adding images to posts, SEO-oriented content configuration, adding icons, and customizing the theme; and site configuration, including site information, the main menu, taxonomies, SEO, publisher information, and social networks and links.

The README states that the theme's build tooling comes from gohugo-amp, the templates from hugo-nuo, and the styles are based on hugo-lamp. The repository provides one screenshot as a preview and does not list dependencies or specific framework versions. The license is MIT, permitting free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, but third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate license verification.

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.
