Template Details
This is the source code repository for the example website of the Bloggraph theme. Bloggraph is a Hugo theme positioned for showcasing research projects and personal profiles, so the example site's content is organized around academic scenarios, including pages such as the homepage and publications. The repository itself is not the theme code, but a demonstration implementation of the theme, and can serve as a starting point for building a personal academic homepage or project showcase page using the theme.
In terms of usage, the README requires first installing the extended version of Hugo (v0.90+), and cloning the repository with the --recursive flag because the theme is included as a submodule; after cloning, run hugo serve to preview locally. The repository is under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code, provided the copyright and license notice are retained when distributing. Third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate verification of their licenses and cannot be judged solely based on the code's MIT license.
