<p>Indigo is a lightweight theme for <ahref="https://gohugo.io">Hugo</a> with <ahref="https://indieweb.org">IndieWeb</a> features baked in. It’s great for longer-form blogging, placing its focus on distraction-free reading and beautiful typefaces.</p>
<h2id="indieweb-features">IndieWeb features</h2>
<p>A key feature of this theme is its support for IndieWeb features, including microformats and web sign-in.</p>
<h3id="web-sign-in">Web sign-in</h3>
<p>Indigo handles web sign-in by setting the <code>authorization_endpoint</code> to <ahref="https://indieauth.com">IndieAuth.com</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>IndieAuth.com is part of the <ahref="https://indieweb.org/why">IndieWeb movement</a> to take back control of your online identity. Instead of logging in to websites as “you on Twitter” or “you on Facebook”, <strong>you should be able to log in as just “you”</strong>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This allows you to sign in to certain services simply by providing your site’s domain name.</p>
<h3id="microformats">microformats</h3>
<p>Indigo marks up content with appropriate <ahref="http://microformats.org">microformats</a>, which provides semantic definitions of your content to other software. Posts are marked up with <code>h-entry</code> classes, like <code>p-name</code>, <code>p-author</code>, and <code>e-content</code>, while the author bio is marked up with <code>h-card</code> classes, including <code>u-photo</code>, <code>u-url</code>, <code>p-locality</code>/<code>p-country-name</code>, and <code>p-note</code>.</p>
<h2id="open-typefaces">Open typefaces</h2>
<p>Indigo uses a combination of three beautiful typefaces to render your words.</p>
<ul>
<li><ahref="https://bboxtype.com/typefaces/FiraSans/#!layout=specimen">Fira Sans</a> for heading text</li>
<li><ahref="https://practicaltypography.com/charter.html">Charter</a> for body text</li>
<li><ahref="https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode">Fira Code</a> for monospaced text</li>
</ul>
<p>Licenses are included in the theme’s <code>static/fonts</code> folder.</p>
<p>Have a look at a couple of paragraphs of placeholder text using the wonderfully readable Charter:</p>
