Template Details
Touchy is a Hugo theme released by Gethugothemes, positioned as a minimal personal blog. The repository README states it is 100% mobile responsive, built on Bootstrap, and bundles CSS and JavaScript via Hugo Pipes. The theme includes more than 5 pre-designed pages, including blog post detail, about, elements showcase, terms and conditions, and contact pages. It also supports Google Analytics, Open Graph and Twitter Card meta tags, a GDPR consent component, and comes with a pre-configured Netlify setup.
For content management, the template is pre-configured with the Git-based headless CMS Sitepins, allowing text, images, and configuration to be edited without modifying code. Local development is handled through npm scripts: first run project-setup to initialize the project, then use dev to start the local server. Full documentation is hosted on the Gethugothemes documentation site.
Regarding licensing, the repository contains a standard MIT license file, permitting free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code, provided the copyright notice and license notice are retained when redistributed. Note that the MIT license for the code does not cover third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons; the README explicitly states that demo images are for demonstration only and each has its own license. External services such as domain and hosting may also incur separate charges.

License & source material
Usage conditions & limitations
Free to use · keep license noticeThis entry covers the free version under the MIT license in the public repository; the free scope is the code of this version and does not imply that external services or third-party assets are free.
Must comply with when using
- Free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code are permitted.
- 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
- Demo images are for demonstration only and each has its own license; the project has no right to share these images. Therefore, these images are not licensed together with the MIT code license, and you must replace them or obtain separate image licenses for actual use.
- The template is pre-configured with the third-party headless CMS Sitepins for visual content editing. This is an external service that may require account registration and may incur fees; it is not a function of the code itself.
- Google Analytics support relies on an external service; before use, you need to register a Google Analytics account and obtain a tracking ID.
- The pre-configured Netlify setup means deployment typically depends on the external Netlify hosting service, which may involve account registration and fees after exceeding free quotas.
- Demo images, fonts, icons, and other third-party assets must be checked under their respective licenses; they cannot be judged solely by the MIT license of the code.
- External services such as domain, hosting, database, payment, or AI may incur additional 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.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.
The catalog identifies Hugo as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
