No mandatory JavaScript

This theme has no mandatory JavaScript. Optionally, it can load a minimal amount to add some features that are impossible to achieve with HTML and CSS.

Globally enabled settings

• Search. Enabled by setting a default language and build_search_index = true on the main section of config.toml. (~23KB of JavaScript)

• The light/dark mode switch can be enabled by setting theme_switcher = true in the [extra] section of your config.toml (~1KB of JavaScript).

• E-mail decoding (~400 bytes). To protect against spambots scraping your e-mail from your website, you can set encode_plaintext_email = true. If your site is on a public repository, for extra protection, consider setting your email as a base64-encoded string^[1] directly.

Settings with hierarchical override capability

The following settings can be specified for posts, sections and globally, following the hierarchy of page > section > config.toml:

• KaTeX support. Enabled by setting katex = true (274 KB).
• One-click copy of code blocks. Enabled by setting copy_button = true. (~700 bytes)
• Showing source (path or URL) in code blocks. Enabled by setting add_src_to_code_block = true. (~300 bytes)

To specify these settings:

• Globally: Add them under the [extra] section in your config.toml file.
• For a section: Add them under the [extra] section in the front matter of the section’s _index.md.
• For an individual post: Set the corresponding variables in the [extra] section of the post’s front matter.

Settings that can be enabled globally or for individual posts

• Comments. giscus (2 KB), utterances (1 KB), Hyvor Talk (~800 bytes) or Isso (1KB) can be globally enabled by setting enabled_for_all_posts = true in the right section of your config.toml (i.e. [extra.giscus], [extra.utterances], [extra.hyvortalk] or [extra.isso]). To enable comments on individual posts, set the name of the system = true (e.g. hyvortalk = true) in the post’s front matter.

Other than that, it’s a fast theme with HTML and CSS which works with JavaScript disabled. Just the way (most of) the web should be :-)

1. To encode your email in base64 you can use online tools or, on your terminal, run: printf 'mail@example.com' | base64. ↩
