This is a clone of the Hugo theme Ed by Serhei Iakovlev. It has been adapted for my personal website because my site's structure and needs are different from the original intended user case.
My website contains three major sections (translations, original works, and blog posts). The "genres" or literary types (poetry, narrative, etc.) are orthogonal to the sections. For example, "poetry" may appear under "translations" or "original works". To better implement and manage the section structure and genres, I need some changes to the template themselves.
Other major changes include the following:
- The table of contents has been redesigned for the user case of showing a long table. Each item's section is shown in the table, and visual cues are put in place to guide the viewing of a long table.
- The list of tags under the blog post is further simplified. Instead of drawn boundaries imitating a physical tag, I prefer a simple comma-separated list as a text line.
- A new kind of byline item, the "translator", has been implemented and added to the byline when necessary.
- To make search by author easier, for translated works the text "By ... (author)" is added to the beginning of the JSON index content. So by searching for "Marina" you may get a list of poems originally written by Marina Tsvetaeva.
- Overall, the styles are being redesigned for further simplicity, readability, and accessibility (WIP).
The following text is from the original Ed project's README page.
Ed is a Hugo theme designed for textual editors based on minimal computing principles, and focused on legibility, durability, ease and flexibility.
This theme is adopted and finalized with new functionality from Jekyll Ed theme by Alex Gil.
