The Hugo Theme for Developers
Hinode gives you full control over your static site. Built on Hugo and Bootstrap 5, actively maintained, and 100% open source. No lock-in, no black boxes, just a solid foundation you can extend and own.
Why Hinode?
Most Hugo themes give you a starting point. Hinode gives you a production-ready system.
Modern Build System
Hugo modules, CI/CD automation, asset bundling. A real build pipeline that handles assets, dependencies, and deploys properly.
Bootstrap 5 Foundation
No reinventing the wheel. Hinode builds directly on Bootstrap 5 for a responsive, accessible, well-documented component system.
Open Source, No Lock-In
Actively maintained and open to contributions. Your site stays on the open-source stack. No proprietary formats, no vendor dependency.
Rich Component Library
More than 30 shortcode components and 15 content blocks out of the box. From heroes to cards to testimonials — assemble pages without writing layout code.
