Checked on October 27, 2026 from the LICENSE file in the source repository (Copyright (c) 2022 Nuno Coração (https://nunocoracao.com)). Full text: MIT License. The license file that comes with the template is what counts. This is not legal advice.

Who it suits

Good to know: Needs Hugo to build.

How to use it

This is a Hugo theme, so it is not a single HTML file: you write pages in Markdown and Hugo builds the site. It needs the Hugo program on your computer, or a host that builds it for you.

  1. Start from the theme's guide. Open the GitHub repository and follow its install steps; most themes offer a starter you can copy in one click.
  2. Write your pages in Markdown. Each post or page is a simple text file.
  3. Publish. Free hosts like GitHub Pages, Netlify and Cloudflare Pages can build Hugo sites automatically when you push changes.
  4. Keep the license. Leave the LICENSE file in the theme folder.
