Szablon Hugo "somestyleplease"

Screenshot

I created theme for the Hugo static website generator¹.

Theme is called somestyleplease and is a modified fork of the nostyleplease theme. Because CSS takes several kilobytes and the generated HTML is practically just plain text - it is super light and responsive (and looks nice).

What the template looks like

The website you are on uses this template - but I also created a demo version so that everyone can click and check if this style suits them. As you can also see in the screenshot above, I’ve added several color variations to choose from.

What did I change?

As I mentioned above, this is a fork of the nostyleplease template. I mainly used the visual side because the style is simple and clear while being very nice. What I was digging into was the logic of the home page. Comparing both templates, the changes are probably not very visible at first glance, but I added functionalities such as:

handling subpages (not just entries)
very simple menu on the home page
entry categories (and displaying them under entries)
entry tags (and displaying them under the entries)
support for multilingual websites
on the home page you can highlight and present all entries using a list (like on my website) or only those from a selected category (or create several lists that will show different categories).

Where to download the template and how to use it

You can clone the repo on GitHub, there is also a user guide.

Generators are programs that create websites based on text files on your computer. Their advantage is speed and a higher level of security, but the disadvantage is that you have to learn how to use them. These are tools for people who use the command line. ↩︎
