Tufte Hugo Theme

Contributor Covenant Test Build Netlify Status

History of this project

Hugo-Tufte is a minimalist blog-like theme for the static site generator Hugo that attempts to be a faithful implementation of the Tufte-css project. The current version supports mathematical typesetting via KaTeX.

Quickstart

Prerequisite: Hugo Extended

You'll need to install Hugo Extended for this theme to test it locally, since this theme uses SCSS.

  • On Windows:
    • Using Chocolatey:
      choco install hugo-extended # remember, you might need admin privs
  • On macOS:

Check out the example site

git clone https://github.com/loikein/hugo-tufte.git
cd hugo-tufte/exampleSite
hugo server --buildDrafts --disableFastRender

Then open localhost:1313 or wherever it says in browser.

The showcase posts are:

  • The big old test page
  • Tufte CSS

For a new site

hugo new site <your-site-name>
cd <your-site-name>/themes/
git clone https://github.com/loikein/hugo-tufte.git

Add theme: 'hugo-tufte' to your config.yaml to let your site know to actually use this theme, specifically.

Then run hugo server --buildDrafts --disableFastRender and open localhost:1313 or wherever it says in browser.

Features

Math

In this version, I use Yihui Xie's method to support (almost) seamless LaTeX rendering with KaTeX.

Downside: LaTeX in post title is no longer supported.
