Overview

Bootie Docs is a simple Hugo theme designed specifically for documentation purposes. The theme gets its name from its use of the Bootstrap CSS framework. It offers a streamlined and straightforward design to provide easy navigation and access to documentation content.

Features

  • Compatible with Hugo, a popular static site generator
  • Utilizes the Bootstrap CSS framework for a responsive and mobile-friendly design
  • Provides a customizable menu for easy navigation and organization of documentation content

Installation

To install Bootie Docs, follow these steps:

  2. Edit the content/\_index.md file to add the desired content for the top page.

Summary

Bootie Docs is a minimalistic Hugo theme specifically designed for creating documentation websites. It offers a simple and clean design, making it easy for users to navigate and access documentation content. However, it lacks certain features typically found in blogging themes, such as RSS feeds and post pagination. The theme includes the Bootstrap CSS framework, jQuery, and highlight.js for added functionality and flexibility. Bootie Docs is released under the MIT License, making it free and open-source for developers to use and modify.
