What is Hugo ?
GoHugo is a static website generator framework, which helps you to create blazing fast website with good SEO and security by design.
The output of a website generator contains only js, html and css files which makes the deployment easy and nearly everywhere possible.
What is a Hugo Theme
A hugo theme is a component for gohugo which dictates the structure, layout and style for a website. It also enables devs to add features to the gohugo website.
Meet my Theme Stargazer
Stargazer Layout is a hugo theme module that uses beer css for styling and supports node_modules and importmaps. It offers features like minification, fingerprinting, and custom JS/CSS integration.
It's a theme that gives you a material-3 based designed blog as a default starting point.
Why I developed Stargazer Layout
I love the design choices of material 3. I think it gives a clean look and gives a website a modern look within a responsive design.
I also wanted a starting point for my business oriented theme stargazer
. This Theme should be able to use node_modules
, vue-applications
and also able to be easy adaptable for new code injections. So I thought that a blog based theme template which includes those features is a good starting point. More over, I really love goHugo and open source projects, thus I wanted to give something back. This is my way to do it. :)
