What stands out

A quick read of the recorded project description.

Site parameters can configure author, editor, webmaster, copyright year and entity, as well as GitHub and Mastodon links

Page-level parameters support book-style layout, drop-cap, and math formula loading

Blog section pages automatically enable book-style layout and drop caps, and additionally support the table-of-contents parameter

RSS and Atom templates pull articles from the blog section, and editor and webmaster information is used for feed metadata

The README explicitly states that the three top-level pages /subscribe/, /contact/, and /legal-information/ are hard-referenced

Template Details

This is a Hugo theme module written by the author for a personal website, released publicly under the MIT license. The theme organizes content around personal site and blog scenarios: site-level parameters cover author, editor, webmaster, copyright, and social links, while page-level parameters control book-style layout, drop caps, and math formula loading. The README states that the three top-level pages /subscribe/, /contact/, and /legal-information/ are hard-referenced in multiple places and should be retained; the blog section is technically optional, but the RSS and Atom templates by default pull articles from that section, and pages within it forcibly enable book-style and drop-cap, which cannot be disabled. The theme's configuration merge mainly involves two groups of settings: markup.highlight and outputFormats.rss.

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.

What to verify for this project

Repository update recorded: 2026-09-12

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 Hugo 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.

## Necessary Pages

hard-referenced from multiple places:

| Link                  | Description                                                                    |

| `/legal-information/` | A page containing legal information like the copyright and the privacy policy. |

## Note on the `blog` Section

The `blog` section doesn't *technically* have to exist when using this template,
but the general assumption is that it does. It is where the RSS and Atom
templates pull the posts from.

Also note that the `book-style`, `drop-cap` parameters are automatically enabled
for all pages in this section and cannot be disabled.

Furthermore, the following additional parameters are available for pages in this
section:

| Parameter           | Default Value | Description                                                                  |
| ---                 | ---           | ---                                                                          |
| `table-of-contents` | `false`       | Show a table of contents at the beginning of a page.                         |
