Visually, it references the iOS 11 style, using large, prominent headings, rounded buttons, and cards.

For content and site features, the theme supports internationalization, search, table of contents, author information, and additional styles such as alert, tag, image, icon, button, and grid, and provides extensions such as audios, videos, slides, and demos. Markdown enhancements include MathJax, mermaid, and chartjs.

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.
