-# Hugo ᕦʕ •ᴥ•ʔᕤ Bear Cub ![Test](https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog/workflows/CI/badge.svg?branch=master&event=push)
+# ᕦʕ •ᴥ•ʔᕤ Bear Cub
-🧸 A [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/)-theme based on [Bear Blog](https://bearblog.dev).
+[![github pages](https://github.com/clente/hugo-bearcub/actions/workflows/gh-pages.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/clente/hugo-bearcub/actions/workflows/gh-pages.yml)
+[![MIT license](https://img.shields.io/github/license/clente/hugo-bearcub)](https://github.com/clente/hugo-bearcub/blob/main/LICENSE)
-> Free, no-nonsense, super-fast blogging.
+## Overview
-## Demo
+🐻 A lightweight [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/) theme based on [Bear
+Blog](https://bearblog.dev) and [Hugo Bear
+Blog](https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog).
-For a current & working demo of this theme, please check out https://janraasch.github.io/hugo-bearblog/ 🎯.
-
-## Screenshots
-
-⬜️ [Light][light-screenshot]
-
-⬛️ [Dark][dark-screenshot]
-
-When the user's browser is running »dark mode«, the dark color scheme will be used automatically. The default is the light/white color scheme. Check out the [`style.html`](https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog/blob/master/layouts/partials/style.html)-file for the implementation.
+**Bear Cub** takes care of speed and optimization, so you can focus on writing
+good content. It is free, multilingual, optimized for search engines,
+no-nonsense, responsive, light, and fast. Really fast.
## Installation
-If you already have a Hugo site on your machine, you can simply add this theme via
+Follow Hugo's [quick start](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/) to
+create an empty website and then clone **Bear Cub** into the themes directory as
+a [Git submodule](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules):
-```
-git submodule add https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog.git themes/hugo-bearblog
+```sh
+git submodule add https://github.com/clente/hugo-bearcub themes/hugo-bearcub
```
-Then, adjust the `config.toml` as detailed below.
+To finish off, append a line to the site configuration file:
-For more information, read the official [setup guide][hugo-setup-guide] of Hugo.
+```sh
+echo 'theme = "hugo-bearcub"' >> config.toml
+```
-## Adjust configuration / config.toml
+## Features
-Please check out the [config.toml](https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog/blob/master/exampleSite/config.toml) included in the [exampleSite](https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog/tree/master/exampleSite) of this theme.
+Like [Bear Blog](https://bearblog.dev), this theme:
+- Is free and open source
+- Looks great on any device
+- Makes tiny (~5kb), optimized, and awesome pages
+- Has no trackers, ads, or scripts
+- Automatically generates an RSS feed
-## Content & structure
+But that's not all! **Bear Cub** is also...
-### Starting fresh
+### Accessible
-If you are starting fresh, simply copy over the contents of the `exampleSite`-directory included in this theme to your source directory. That should give you a good idea about how things work, and then you can go on from there to make the site your own.
+**Bear Cub** has a few accessibility upgrades when compared to its predecessors.
+The color palette has been overhauled to make sure everything is
+[readable](https://web.dev/color-and-contrast-accessibility/) for users with low
+vision impairments or color deficiencies, and some interactive elements were
+made bigger to facilitate [clicking](https://web.dev/accessible-tap-targets/)
+for users with a motor impairment.
-### Adding / editing content
+These small changes mean that **Bear Cub** passes Google's [PageSpeed
+test](https://pagespeed.web.dev/report?url=https%3A%2F%2Fclente.github.io%2Fhugo-bearcub%2F)
+with flying colors.
-#### Index-Page
+![PageSpeed score](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/clente/hugo-bearcub/main/images/pagespeed.webp)
-The contents of the `index`-page may be changed by editing your `content/_index.md`-file.
+### Secure
-#### Page
+[**Bear Cub**'s demo](https://clente.github.io/hugo-bearcub/) is hosted on GitHub
+and therefore I'm not in control of its [Content Security
+Policy](https://infosec.mozilla.org/guidelines/web_security#content-security-policy).
+However, the theme itself was made with security in mind: there are no inline
+styles and it uses no JavaScript at all.
-You can add **a new page** via running
+If you want to improve your [Mozilla
+Observatory](https://observatory.mozilla.org/) score even further, you should be
+able to simply add a few headers to your hosting service's configuration (e.g.
+[Netlify](https://docs.netlify.com/routing/headers/) or [Cloudflare
+Pages](https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/platform/headers/)) and never
+have to think about it again. My `_headers` file, for example, looks like this:
```
-hugo new my-new-page.md
+/*
+ X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
+ Strict-Transport-Security: "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload" env=HTTPS
+ Cache-Control: max-age=31536000, public
+ X-Frame-Options: deny
+ Referrer-Policy: no-referrer
+ Feature-Policy: microphone 'none'; payment 'none'; geolocation 'none'; midi 'none'; sync-xhr 'none'; camera 'none'; magnetometer 'none'; gyroscope 'none'
+ Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'; manifest-src 'self'; font-src 'self'; img-src 'self'; style-src 'self'; form-action 'none'; frame-ancestors 'none'; base-uri 'none'
+ X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
```
-#### Blog-Post
-
-You can add **a new blog-post** via running
-
+### Multilingual
+
+If you need to write a blog that supports more than one language, **Bear Cub**
+has you covered! Check out the demo's [`config.toml`
+file](https://github.com/clente/hugo-bearcub/blob/main/exampleSite/config.toml)
+for a sample of how you can setup multilingual support.
+
+By default, the theme creates a translation button that gets disabled when the
+current page is only available in any other language. You can also choose to
+hide this button (instead of disabling it) by setting `hideUntranslated =
+false`.
+
+### More
+
+Every once in a while, as I keep using **Bear Cub**, I notice that there is some
+functionality missing. Currently, these are the "advanced features" that I have
+already implemented:
+
+- Static content: you can create empty blog entries that act as links to static
+ files by including `link: "{url}"` in a post's [front
+ matter](https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/).
+- Single-use CSS (EXPERIMENTAL): you can add some styles to a single page by
+ writing the CSS you need in `assets/{custom_css}.css` and then including
+ `style: "{custom_css}.css"` in the [front
+ matter](https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/) of said page.
+
+## Configuration
+
+**Bear Cub** can be customized with a `config.toml` file. Check out the
+[configuration](https://github.com/clente/hugo-bearcub/blob/main/exampleSite/config.toml)
+of the [demo](https://clente.github.io/hugo-bearcub/) for more information.

-### Adding your branding / colors / css
-
-Add a `custom_head.html`-file to your `layouts/partials`-directory. In there you may add a `<style>`-tag, *or* you may add a `<link>`-tag referencing your own `custom.css` (in case you prefer to have a separate `.css`-file). Check out the [`style.html`](https://github.com/janraasch/hugo-bearblog/blob/master/layouts/partials/style.html)-file to find out which CSS-styles are applied by default.
