The theme's capabilities include: ASCII art, syntax highlighting consistent with the Tokyo Night color scheme, and a blinking cursor animation on the homepage. Configuration options are centralized under params in hugo.toml, allowing customization of the terminal prompt and a list of social links (name and url).
Installation is done by adding the repository to the project's themes directory via git submodule, then pointing theme in hugo.toml to that directory name. The repository's README does not describe content types, page structure, or more detailed template override methods; before use, it is advisable to read the theme source to confirm the scope of customization.
