Cocoa Enhanced is a clean, fast, and responsive Hugo theme with cool typography. The main goal of this theme is to be simple and fast but also highly customizable.
A demo is available here.
This is a fork from the original Cocoa theme, with some improvements.
- Possibility to have sections with a header and a list of articles.
- Possibility to have single pages.
- Homepage with latest and best posts.
- Syntax highlighting with
hightlightjs
. - Progressive images.
- Twitter cards support.
- Disqus and Isso support.
- LaTeX support with MathJax (use
.mmark
).
The typography is what makes Cocoa-EH look cool. The fonts used are:
- Nexa Bold for the blog name, a strong and opinionated font
- Raleway for the titles, light but clearly visible
- Merriweather for the text, an awesome sans serif font to read without difficulties
- Ubuntu Mono for the code
Everything is made here to make the theme really fast to load: inline CSS, deferred Javascript, fonts loaded in an asynchronous way with replacement fonts when they're not loaded, etc. ... Even with a GPRS connection, your blog is readable.
With gzip enabled, this theme takes less than 400ms to load entirely, and the content is readable at only 50ms. Also scores 99/100 on Pagespeed.
This theme is less minimalist than the original Cocoa, with some new features :
- Displays a logo on the side of the header, and there is a title different from the author name.
- Very modular with sections and single pages.
- Group articles by month and year.
- Progressive images.
- Fonts are different : stronger and sharper, with a clear identity.
- The font size in articles is higher, the text justified and lines are more spaced.
- and more...
