Template Details
Shiloh is a Hugo blog theme hosted on GitHub, authored by jwhumphries, with the repository licensed under MIT. The theme is built with Tailwind CSS v4 and daisyUI, offering responsive layouts, dark mode, search functionality, and custom utility classes and animations.
For installation, the theme requires Hugo 0.152.0+ extended version and a build environment with npm and tailwindcss v4; users also need to configure build stats, cache busting, and module mounts in the site configuration, with specific steps detailed on the official documentation's installation page. The repository provides an online demo and documentation site for viewing actual page effects.
The materials do not specify the theme's included page types, content structure, or range of configurable options, nor do they provide dependency information beyond Hugo and front-end build tools; therefore, the above capability boundaries should be based on the repository and documentation.
