# Light Speed
An insanely fast and performance-based Zola theme, ported from [Light Speed Jekyll](https://github.com/bradleytaunt/lightspeed).
Some fun facts about the theme:
* Perfect score on Google's Lighthouse audit
* Only ~700 bytes of CSS
* No JavaScript
* Now with SEO!
Demo: [quirky-perlman-34d0da.netlify.com](https://quirky-perlman-34d0da.netlify.com)

## Installation
First download this theme to your `themes` directory:
```bash
$ cd themes
$ git clone https://github.com/carpetscheme/lightspeed.git
```
and then enable it in your `config.toml`:
```toml
theme = "lightspeed"
```
Posts should be placed directly in the `content` folder.
To sort the post index by date, enable sort in your index section `content/_index.md`:
```toml
sort_by = "date"
```
## Options
### Title
Set a title and description in the config to appear in the site header:
```toml
title = "Different strokes"
description = "for different folks"
```
### Footer-menu
Set a field in `extra` with a key of `footer_links`:
```toml
[extra]
footer_links = [
{url = "$BASE_URL/about", name = "About"},
{url = "$BASE_URL/atom.xml", name = "RSS"},
{url = "https://google.com", name = "Google"},
]
```
If you put `$BASE_URL` in a url, it will automatically be replaced by the actual
site URL.
Create pages such as `$BASE_URL/about` by placing them in a subfolder of the content directory, and specifying the path in the frontmatter:
```toml
path = "about"
```
### SEO
Most SEO tags are populated by the page metadata, but you can set the `author` and for the `og:image` tag provide the path to an image:
```toml
[extra]
author = "Grant Green"
ogimage = "Greenery.png"
```
### Footer-text
By default the footer provides links to Zola and Netlify, and a tagline of "Maintained with :heart: for the web".
To disable any of those parts, and/or add a custom tagline of your own, the following options are available:
```toml
[extra]
zola = true
netlify = false
maintained_with_love = false
footer_tagline = "What if everything is an illusion and nothing exists? In that case, I definitely overpaid for my carpet."
```
### Sass
Styles are compiled from sass and imported inline to the header :zap:
You can overide the styles by enabling sass compilation in the config:
```toml
compile_sass = true
```
...and placing a replacement `style.scss` file in your sass folder.
