Does not depend on JavaScript; pages are rendered as static HTML/CSS

The README is brief, providing only the demo, documentation, and Netlify deployment status
Template Details
redgood is a Hugo blog theme published by author urjaacharya, positioned as clean and minimal and not dependent on JavaScript. Both the repository description and README emphasize this characteristic; the README only provides links to an online demo and documentation, along with a Netlify deployment status badge.
Based on verifiable materials, the theme targets blog scenarios and includes a documentation page (the redgood_documentation path in the demo site). The repository does not list specific features, configuration options, or dependency versions in the README, so capabilities such as menus, pagination, syntax highlighting, and comments should be confirmed against the actual repository and documentation.
Regarding licensing, the repository contains a standard MIT license file, permitting free use, modification, commercial use, and distribution of this version of the code, provided the copyright notice and license notice are retained when redistributed; third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons require separate license verification.

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.
