Template Details
Wiggle is a Jekyll theme for blogs that uses the Materialize front-end framework to achieve a Material Design visual style and includes a responsive layout. The README shows screenshots of archive, post, about, and tag pages, indicating that the theme covers common blog page structures.
The theme is driven by the Jekyll static site generator, and the build output is static pages, making it suitable for deployment to platforms that support static hosting. The repository was last updated in 2015, making it a relatively early template; the versions of Jekyll and Materialize it depends on are not listed in the available material, so compatibility should be checked before use.
The code is open source under the MIT license and may be used, modified, and distributed free of charge, but third-party assets such as the demo images in the README require separate license verification.

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.
