Template Details
hexo-theme-inside is a blog theme for Hexo that uses Angular to deliver a single-page application (SPA) experience with an overall flat, clean visual style. The theme is installed via the npm package hexo-theme-inside; in the Hexo project's _config.yml, set theme to inside, and copy the theme's bundled _config.yml to _config.inside.yml for configuration. Full documentation is available on the author's blog at the theme-inside page.
Functionally, the theme provides custom theming, built-in search, built-in Disqus comments, and a flexible plugin mechanism. For content presentation, it includes rewards, copyright notices, image zoom, handling for headerless tables and long tables, and built-in content add-ons such as collapsible sections, timelines, and content encryption. Other features include PWA (immersive design and workbox-based offline support), SEO (SSR, sitemap), and print friendliness.
Known limitations: the README does not specify browser compatibility ranges, build artifact sizes, or performance metrics; the front-end source code is hosted in a separate Bitbucket repository, hexo-theme-inside-ng, not in the main GitHub repository; before use, confirm the Hexo and Node.js version requirements (the README badges indicate Hexo 7.0+ and Node.js 18+, specific version numbers are not expanded here).

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.
