Introduction
Mabuya is a minimal Zola theme focused on helping you build an elegant, fast, lightweight, and SEO-ready blog.
While searching for themes, I came across Zola Tale. Sadly, the project's last update was almost 2 years ago on Dec 4, 2021. I forked the project to add my own touches to it.
Where The Name Comes From
The name Mabuya comes from the Mabuya hispaniolae, a possibly extinct1 species of skink endemic to the Dominican Republic, my home country.
Features and Improvements over Original
While working on the theme, I have added new functionality and many quality of life improvements. Here's a short non-inclusive list:
- Fully refactored stylesheets.
- Added Dark theme and color scheme toggle.
- Added new footer navigation.
- Created a custom GitHub Action that is faster than any other in GitHub.
- Refined page transitions from desktop to mobile and viceversa.
- Centralized custom variables. Made it easier to make color changes to the site.
- Addressed PR #7.
- Addressed (temporarily) Issue #1.
- Addressed Issue #4.
- Optimized for speed and Accesibility.
- And many other small improvements.
