Purainite

Purainite is a minimal, clean theme for Hexo, a static site generator, that renders a Hexo blog's Markdown content into a styled static site with optional code highlighting.

What is Purainite?

Purainite is a simple and clean theme for Hexo, built for bloggers who want an uncluttered layout. It takes a Hexo site's Markdown posts and configuration as input and produces a styled static blog. The theme is distributed as a Git repository on GitHub (https://github.com/MU001999/purainite.git) and is installed directly into Hexo's themes directory.

Key Features

• Clean design — The repository describes Purainite as simple and clean, with no extra visual clutter.
• Hexo integration — Installed by cloning into $BLOG/themes and activated with a single theme: purainite line in _config.yml.
• Code syntax highlighting — Supports Hexo's built-in highlighting; setting highlight with enable: true and hljs: true enables hljs for code blocks.
• Markdown content — Works with Hexo's standard Markdown posts and pages, so you write in plain text and get rendered pages.
• Minimal setup — The two-step installation outlined in the README requires only a git clone and a config change.
