Mud

In which Hugo gets a new theme, dark in colour but light in weight.

Introducing Mud, my theme for Hugo (the static site generator used to create this site). That’s what it’s called for the moment, at least. Because it’s brown and not very clever. Let’s see whether it sticks. Lightweight The best way to make a site load fast, work on every browser, and show up properly in search engines, is to strip out anything unnecessary. So this is a theme without any JavaScript (though you can add Google Analytics and Disqus if you like, just by filling in your account details in the configuration).
