A quick read of the recorded project description.
Provides three responsive layout types: post, page, and post index

Built-in Open Graph and Twitter Cards support
Includes an author panel, a custom 404 page, and Pygments/Coderay syntax highlighting styles
Template Details
This is a Jekyll blog theme hosted on GitHub and released under the MIT license. It is based on aron-bordin/neo-hpstr-jekyll-theme, which in turn derives from mmistakes/hpstr-jekyll-theme, so it follows the overall structure of the HPSTR series.
Compared with upstream, the main change in the Neolithic version is that the post header is replaced with a shorter block that displays the post title. The theme includes three layout types: post, page, and post index. It uses Sass and data files for styling and configuration management. The official documentation states that these features require Jekyll 2.x and will not work on older versions.
In terms of features, the theme provides an animated top-bar menu with dropdown support, optional Disqus comments and social sharing links, Open Graph and Twitter Cards metadata, a custom 404 page, Pygments and Coderay syntax highlighting styles, an author panel with social links, and WordPress-like read more tag support. The repository was last updated in 2018, and no further maintenance status information is provided.
