You can download the theme manually by going to https://github.com/rhazdon/hugo-theme-hello-friend-ng.git and pasting it to themes/hello-friend-ng
in your root directory.
You can also clone it directly to your Hugo folder:
git clone https://github.com/rhazdon/hugo-theme-hello-friend-ng.git themes/hello-friend-ng
If you don't want to make any radical changes, it's the best option, because you can get new updates when they are available. To do so, include it as a git submodule:
git submodule add https://github.com/rhazdon/hugo-theme-hello-friend-ng.git themes/hello-friend-ng
The theme doesn't require any advanced configuration. Just copy the following config file.
To see all possible configurations, check the docs.

Of course you are able to use all default shortcodes from hugo (https://gohugo.io/content-management/shortcodes/).
Properties:
src
(required)alt
(optional)position
(optional, default:left
, options: [left
,center
,right
])style
Example:
{{< image src="/img/hello.png" alt="Hello Friend" position="center" style="border-radius: 8px;" >}}
By default the theme is using PrismJS to color your code syntax. All you need to do is to wrap you code like this:
``` html // your code here ```
Check the docs.
You wrote an article and recorded it? Or do you have a special music that you would like to put on a certain article? Then you can do this now without further ado.
In your article add to your front matters part:
audio: path/to/file.mp3
A large variety of social icons are available and can be configured like this:
[[params.social]]
name = "<site>"
url = "<profile_URL>"
Take a look into this list of available icon options.
If you need another one, just open an issue or create a pull request with your wished icon. :)
There is a bug in Hugo that sometimes causes the main page not to render correctly. The reason is an empty taxonomy part. Related issue tickets: !14 !59.
Either you comment it out completely or you write the following in
[taxonomies]
tag = "tags"
category = "categories"
Just edit it. You don't need any node stuff. ;)
If you like my work and if you think this project is worth to support it, just
