Hugo Lost

A simple theme for Hugo, based on Hugo Zen.

It can do dark/light switch: dark mode is based the everforest dark theme, light mode loosely based on Rosé Pine Dawn.

The home page contains a header with tag cloud and pinned pages.

Hugo Lost is a departure from Hugo Zen, adding a few bits I needed for my sites Lost Among Notes and Lost Among Europeans, and simplifying the CSS.

Installation & Usage

Best used as a submodule in your hugo project.

git submodule add https://github.com/jsilvela/hugo-lost themes/lost

followed by init, update ... the usual.

Styling with CSS

This theme includes some basic styling, in the form of a CSS file assets/css/custom.css. It is expected that the users of this theme may add a file called assets/css/extra.css in their site folder. This theme's layout contiains code to concatenate extra.css and custom.css preserving the priority for extra.css, and to generate a single file main.css to be referenced in the HTML head section.

Configuration

Some values from your top-level Hugo site config will be used by this theme, for the footer, analytics, copyright.

[params]
  copyright = "Name of copyright holder"
  github = "github handle"
  email = "owner email"
  goatcounter = "goatcounter URL"
  mastodon = "mastodon handle"
  bluesky = "bluesky handle"
  twitter = "twitter handle"
