Tufte Hugo Theme

Contributor Covenant

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. It supports mathematical typesetting via katex or MathJax. By utilizing copious partial templates the theme is largely customizable.

State of Project

This is a fork of the original hugo-tufte.

Features

Math

Katex or MathJax 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 <p> 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:

<p>
\begin{aligned}
  e &= (xy)^2  \\
  &=xyxy \implies \\
  y^{-1} &= xyx \implies \\
  y^{-1}x^{-1} &= xy,
\end{aligned}
</p>

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.
  • math boolean: Site wide kill switch for Latex support
  • katex boolean: if "katex" is set to true katex will be used to render LaTex, if not MathJax will be used instead

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 project.

  • blockquote

    • Description: Wrap text in a blockquote and insert optional cite or footer metadata.
    • Usage: Accepts the named parameters cite and footer.
    • Example:
    {{< 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 <div class="my-class"> tag, while {{<div "end" >}} inserts the closing </div> tag.
  • epigraph

    • Description: Create an epigraph with the wrapped text.
    • Usage: To include a footer with source attribution, pass in the optional named parameters pre, cite, post. These parameters make no styling assumptions, so spacing is important. A more compactly styled epigraph will be used if the type parameter is set to compact.
    • Example:
    {{< epigraph pre="Author Writer, " cite="Math is Fun" >}}
    This is an example of an epigraph with some math
    $ \mathbb N \subseteq \mathbb R $
    to start the beginning of a section.
    {{< /epigraph >}}
    
  • marginnote

    • Description: Wrap text to produce a numberless margin note.
    • Usage: {{< marginnote >}}...{{< /marginnote >}}
    • Example:
    {{< marginnote >}}Some marginnote{{< /marginnote>}}
    
  • section

    • Description: This shortcode is provided as a work-around for wrapping complex blocks of markdown in section tags. The wrapped text can include other shortcodes
    • Usage: Accepts the style parameters class and id. If only the positional argument "end" is passed, a closing tag will be inserted.
    • Example: {{< section class="my-class" >}} inserts a <section class="my-class"> tag, while {{<section "end" >}} inserts the closing </section> tag.
  • sidenote

    • Description: Wrap text to produce an automatically numbered sidenote.
    • Usage: identical to marginnote {{< sidenote >}}...{{< /sidenote >}}
    • Example:
    {{< sidenote >}}Some sidenote{{< /sidenote >}}
