Template Details

crt-blog is a pure HTML blog website template published by Heroor on GitHub under the MIT license. Its core characteristic is styling pages to look like a retro CRT terminal: green phosphor text on a black background, scanline effects, and pixelated fonts, evoking the atmosphere of 1980s computer interfaces and hacker culture. The template is positioned as a personal website, emphasizing minimal interaction and retaining only essential information so that the content itself becomes the visual focus.

According to the materials, it provides actual page screenshots for both desktop and mobile, indicating that the pages have usable layouts at both screen sizes. The repository README describes the interface features but does not provide build tools, dependencies, or deployment instructions; the template itself is HTML, so it can be opened directly in a browser for viewing.

Regarding usage restrictions, the code is under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, but the copyright notice and license notice must be retained when distributing. Third-party assets such as images, fonts, and icons appearing in the demo need to be checked separately for their licenses and cannot be judged solely by the code's MIT license.
