Template Details
Tella is a Hugo theme published on Hugo Themes, positioned for corporate sites. The repository description lists features including responsive layout, a carousel based on Splide.js, Google Analytics, pagination, category support, Disqus / Giscus comments, and FontAwesome and Bootstrap Icons icon sets.
There are two installation methods: directly git clone into the Hugo site's themes/tella directory, or add via git submodule, then update with git pull or git submodule update --remote --merge respectively. The theme's build depends on Node.js; you need to copy package.json from exampleSite to the site root and run npm install.
Before use, copy config.toml from exampleSite to the Hugo site root and modify as needed, then preview locally with hugo server (default localhost:1313) and generate the static site with hugo. The repository does not state a specific Hugo version requirement in the README, nor does it provide commitments regarding production deployment, SEO, or performance.
Regarding licensing, the repository LICENSE is MIT, allowing free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code, provided the copyright notice and license statement are retained when distributing; the authorization for third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons must be verified separately.
