Template Details
Weight is a Ghost theme published by macctown on GitHub, positioned for personal websites and blogs. The README states it is inspired by WildBook and takes a minimalist approach overall; the repository is also categorized under both portfolio and blog templates.
Installation is straightforward: download the theme files from GitHub and upload them according to the Ghost official documentation. The README provides no additional steps. The theme code is released under the MIT license, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution, provided the copyright and license notice are retained when redistributed.
The TODO list in the README indicates that configuration options such as color scheme (background color, font color), menus, comment toggles, and analytics components were not yet implemented at the time, and loading animations and a skills page were also planned. The current version is therefore closer to a lightweight theme with fixed styling and limited customizability. Third-party assets such as images, fonts, and icons in the demo site require separate license verification, and external services such as domains and hosting may incur costs.

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 HTML 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.
