mensch

Mensch is a Zola theme roughly based on Wolfgang's notthebe.ee site using gruvbox and the Inter font (a particular but favorite combo of mine 😄).

Installation

First download this theme to your themes directory:

cd themes
git clone https://github.com/wilsonjholmes/mensch.git

and then enable it in your config.toml:

theme = "mensch"

Options

Sidebar menu

Set a field in extra with a key of mensch_links:

[extra]
mensch_links = [
    {url = "https://google.com", name = "Google.com"},
    {url = "https://google.fr", name = "Google.fr"},
]

Each link needs to have a url and a name.

Sticky sidebar content

By default Mensch ships with a sidebar that affixes it's content to the bottom of the sidebar. You can optionally disable this by setting mensch_sticky to false in your config.toml.

#TODO

Themes

Mensch ships with eight optional themes based on the base16 color scheme. Apply a theme to change the color scheme (mostly applies to sidebar and links).

There are eight themes available at this time.

To use a theme, set the mensch_theme field in config.toml to any of the themes name:

[extra]
mensch_theme = "theme-base-08"

#TODO To create your own theme, look to the Themes section of included CSS file. Copy any existing theme (they're only a few lines of CSS), rename it, and change the provided colors.

Reverse layout

Mensch's page orientation can be reversed by setting mensch_reverse to true in the config.toml.
