# Tufte Hugo Theme [![Contributor Covenant](https://img.shields.io/badge/Contributor%20Covenant-2.0-4baaaa.svg)](code_of_conduct.md) Hugo-Tufte is a minimalist blog-like theme for the [static site generator Hugo](https://gohugo.io) that attempts to be a faithful implementation of the [Tufte-css](https://github.com/edwardtufte/tufte-css) project. It supports mathematical typesetting via [katex](https://katex.org/). By utilizing copious partial templates the theme is largely customizable. ## State of Project This is a fork of the original [hugo-tufte](https://github.com/shawnohare/hugo-tufte). ## Features ### Math [katex](https://katex.org/) renders LaTeX written inside of markdown files. LaTeX can be written more or less as normal. Some examples: - This `$ \frac{1}{2} $` will be rendered inline. - A simple displayed equation: `$$f(x, y) := e^{x^2 - y^2}.$$` There currently seems to be some weirdness with other environments, such as the `aligned` environment (`align*` is not supported by katex). These environments will render provided they are wrapped in `
` tags and blank lines. The snippet below should render correctly. ``` Let $G$ be a finite group with exponent $2$. Then every element is an involution, hence for any $x$, $y$ in $G$ we have:
\begin{aligned} e &= (xy)^2 \\ &=xyxy \implies \\ y^{-1} &= xyx \implies \\ y^{-1}x^{-1} &= xy, \end{aligned*}
establishing that $G$ is abelian. ``` ### Site Parameters The site specific parameters that this theme recognizes are: - `subtitle` string: This is displayed under the main title. - `showPoweredBy` boolean: if true, display a shoutout to Hugo and this theme. - `copyrightHolder` string: Inserts the value in the default copyright notice. - `copyright` string: Custom copyright notice. ### Page Parameters - `hideDate` boolean: if true, do not display a page date. When `meta` is set to true, `hideDate` takes greater precedence. - `hideReadTime` boolean: if true, do not display the page's reading time estimate. When `meta` is set to true, `hideReadTime` takes greater precedence. - `math` boolean: if true, try to render the page's LaTeX code using MatheJax. - `meta` boolean: if true, display page metadata such as author, date, categories provided these page parameters exist and are not overridden. Content in the `/post` directory, (i.e., pages of type "post") ignore this parameter. - `toc` boolean: if true, display the table of contents for the page. ### Shortcodes This theme provides the following shortcodes in an attempt to completely support all the features present in the [Tufte-css](https://github.com/edwardtufte/tufte-css) project. - `blockquote` - **Description**: Wrap text in a blockquote and insert optional `cite` or `footer` metadata. - **Usage**: Accepts the named parameters `cite` and `footer`. - **Example**: ```html {{< blockquote cite="www.shawnohare.com" footer="Shawn" >}} There is nothing more beautiful than an elegant mathematical proof. {{< /blockquote >}} ``` - `div` - **Description**: This shortcode is provided as a work-around for wrapping complex blocks of markdown in div tags. The wrapped text can include other shortcodes - **Usage**: Identical to the `section` shortcode. Accepts the style parameters `class` and `id`. If only the positional argument `"end"` is passed, a closing tag will be inserted. - **Example**: `{{< div class="my-class" >}}` inserts a `
