bb

A minimal theme based off of smol. It remains to be seen whether or not I'll update this in any meaningful way, but wanted to have it logged somewhere, just in case.

My goal is to keep the features the same because fuck Google and fuck JavaScript. People should be able to read any site they want regardless of their bandwidth.

If you want to use my theme over smol replace all the references to smol with bb in the copied documentation below.

From smol

Features

• No JavaScript
• No Google spyware or tracking of any kind
• No other external dependencies, embedded fonts or comment sections
• Dark mode support (depending on your OS's setting)

Installation

In your Hugo site themes directory, run:

git clone https://github.com/colorchestra/smol

Next, open config.toml in the base of the Hugo site and ensure the theme option is set to smol.

theme = "smol"

Lastly, add the following lines to your config.toml to set site parameters and make use of all the menu entries in the header and footer sections if you need them.

# Parameters
[params]
    subtitle = "Your blog subtitle goes here!"
    dateFmt = "02.01.2006 15:04"

# Header
[menu]
  [[menu.main]]
        identifier = "posts"
        name = "Posts"
        url = "/posts/"
        weight = 1 

  [[menu.main]]
        identifier = "categories"
        name = "Categories"
        url = "/categories/"
        weight = 2 

  [[menu.main]]
        identifier = "tags"
        name = "Tags"
        url = "/tags/"
        weight = 3

# Footer
  [[menu.footer]]
        name = "Github"
        url = "https://github.com/example"
        weight = 1 

    [[menu.footer]]
        name = "Mastodon"
        url = "https://example.com/@user"
        weight = 2 

    [[menu.footer]]
        name = "Imprint"
        url = "/imprint"
        weight = 3

Optional features

Custom copyright text

Add copyright = "Your text here" - in the config.toml to change the copyright notice in the footer.

Image captions

You can add captions to images (technically using <figcaption> HTML tags) by adding titles, like so: ![Alt text here](/path/to/image.png "Put your caption here!")
