Hydeaway is a simple Jekyll theme for personal websites and blogs that updates the original Hyde theme and borrows a little from the 'refreshed' Hydeout.
Hydeaway sticks to the simple two-column design of the original Hyde theme, but to save screen space in the mobile/tablet versions, condenses the navigation area (by removing the added site icon).
Hydeaway makes prominent use of the site tagline instead of the site description.
It also includes:
- A site icon in the sidebar (on viewports above 825px)
- Font Awesome icons for social media links and navigation buttons
- An optional blog page with a feed of all posts
- The ability to create pinned posts
- A 'Newest Post!' alert for new posts (unless they are also pinned)
The stark distinction between content and navigation bar means that posts (and content in general) can be viewed almost as a document, akin to a PDF or Word file.
Improved upon the UX of the theme by providing 'Back to Top' links in the mobile/tablet versions to return to the main menu.
