# Tufte Hugo Theme
|
|
|
|
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 [MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org).
|
|
By utilizing copious partial templates the theme is largely customizable.
|
|
|
|
## Math
|
|
|
|
Mathjax renders LaTeX written inside of markdown files. LaTeX can be
|
|
written more or less as normal, but inline and display environments that
|
|
start with `\` must be escaped. Some examples:
|
|
|
|
- `This $\LaTeX$ will be rendered inline.`
|
|
- `This \\(\LaTeX\\) will be rendered inline.`
|
|
- `A simple displayed equation: $$f(x, y) := e^{x^2 - y^2}.$$`
|
|
- `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 `align` environment. 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{align*}
|
|
e &= (xy)^2 \\
|
|
&=xyxy \implies \\
|
|
y^{-1} &= xyx \implies \\
|
|
y^{-1}x^{-1} &= xy,
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
</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.
|
|
|
|
## 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
|
|
`<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: Accepts a required positional argument that is the margin note id.
|
|
`{{% marginnote "<margin note id>"" %}}...{{% /marginnote %}}`
|
|
- **Example**: `{{% marginnote "mn-example" %}}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`.
|
|
Accepts a required positional argument that is the side note id.
|
|
`{{% sidenote "<side note id>"" %}}...{{% /sidenote %}}`
|
|
- **Example**: `{{% sidenote "sn-example" %}}Some sidenote{{% /sidenote %}}`
|
|
|
|

|
## Templates
|
|
TODO
|
|
- [ ] Describe the role of each template file, as commenting within the files
|
|
themselves seems to break the templates.
