#Hugo #Minima

A Clean and minimal Hugo theme porting from the Hexo Minima. Click me to take a look.

The main branch is in development stage, UI or configurations may vary. You can use the latest stable version here.

Features

  • Clean
  • Light/dark mode
  • VSCode-style code hightlighting (the most alike among all Hugo themes)
  • KaTeX
  • Mermaid diagrams
  • Google analytics
  • Disqus/Utterances
  • Optional ToC

Usage

Before using Minima, make sure you’ve got Hugo (extended version) installed on your device.

Installation

Suppose blog is where you place your sources.

1
2
3
cd blog
git init
git submodule add --depth 1 https://github.com/mivinci/hugo-theme-minima.git themes/minima

Or clone directly if you don’t wanna use the Git submodule.

1
git clone https://github.com/mivinci/hugo-theme-minima.git themes/minima

Anyways, you just need to put Minima under the blog/themes directory.

Configuration

Follow exampleSite/config.toml and edit your own blog/config.toml file.
