  • What Hugo-Book Theme Is#

    Hugo book theme is primarily designed to create technical documentation sites that are easy to read, write, navigate and maintain. It is an attempt to create a sustainable web project.

  • What Hugo-Book Theme Is Not#

    Book theme is not trying to implement all features but to create a starting point. It is mostly feature complete and gets updated and improved to stay relevant with Hugo and modern web.

  • Probably fast#

    Build on Hugo static site generator. “The world’s fastest framework for building websites”.

  • 50% JS free#

    All important features are working even with JavaScript disabled in browser, including interactive shortcodes.

  • Minimalistic#

    For real, it is very minimalistic, black on white. No extra tools are needed to build the site, only Hugo. No heavy JS or CSS frameworks included.

  • Shortcodes#

    Pretty good shortcodes are included to enhance markup files: Columns, Cards, Tabs, Images, Asciinema, KaTex, Mermaid and others.

  • Even more#

    Do people actually read these? I thought it was just a visual filler. But there is full-text search and multi-language support.

  • Made to be extendable#

    There are multiple points to inject own styles and templates to make your documentation your own.
