HUGO.386

HUGO.386 is a port of the BOOTSTRA.386 theme. It has a cool MS-DOS feeling and is ready to be used for blogs. Despite its antique look, the theme is responsive and can be viewed on mobile devices.

Test it on live here! (v1)

Note: A new version based on Bootstrap 4 is in the making with a slightly different design. It’s still in beta but you can test it by fetching the v3 branch instead of the master. Don’t use it in production yet, though. You can test it here!

Installation

As a Hugo module

Remove your previously used theme variable from your site config and remove the themes directory, or move it out of your Hugo site repo.

In your siteconfig add the following:

[module]
  [[module.imports]]
    path = "gitlab.com/jmfergeau/hugo.386"

Inside the folder of your Hugo site run:

$ hugo mod init hugo386

Finally to clean up the go.mod and update/generate the go.sum file which track the module dependencies for your site, run:

$ hugo mod tidy

With git submodules

Inside the folder of your Hugo site run:

$ git submodule add https://gitlab.com/jmfergeau/hugo.386 themes/hugo.386
