## Overview

Osprey Delight is the free-minded artist's choice for a clutter-free and blazingly fast single-page portfolio.

It's perfectly suited to show off your awesome work!

> It tastes a bit different than [the great Osprey theme](https://github.com/tomanistor/osprey) and adds awesome modular functionality to your **delight**.

### Showcase

Check out how Osprey Delight performs in the real-world:

- [Hugo Mods](https://hugo-mods.github.io/) - This theme is built around the Hugo Mods presented on the site. This site also has the [complete source code available](https://github.com/hugo-mods/hugo-mods.github.io).
- [Protonaut Music](https://protonautmusic.com/) - Musician and top contributor whose highly recognizable site got kickstarted by the theme.
- [KDEVO](https://kdevo.github.io/) - It wouldn't be me if I would not run this theme personally to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

### Features

- Modular and made out of extensible section building blocks:
- About: Introduce yourself
- Gallery: Show your work using a grid-based gallery with interactive modal boxes
- Blog: Lightweight blog features
- Contact: Contact form with Basin support and built-in spambot protection
- Use your high-quality images [assets](https://gohugo.io/categories/asset-management):
- Lazy image loading plus completely automatic resizing using [lazyimg](https://github.com/hugo-mods/lazyimg) module
- Blur-up technique using automatic low-quality image placeholders (LQIP)
- Modern WebP support with fallback for older browsers
- SEO:
- [Score 100 at PageSpeed Insights](https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkdevo.github.io%2F). Every bit is fine-tuned with performance in mind!
- Auto-generated structured ensures that everyone finds you
- Delightful UX:
- Choose between different themes
- Awesome social icons in footer via [icons module](https://github.com/hugo-mods/icons)
- Smooth scrolling plus scroll-spy
- Automatically fetches GitHub repo data
- Sane fallbacks for No-Script/No-JS users
- Heavily [customizable](#customize-it) - no need to maintain a fork!

In general, many [open issues](https://github.com/tomanistor/osprey/issues) of the original theme have been resolved and code has been rewritten.

### Contribute and show your support

There are multiple ways to show your support if you like this project:

- ❤️ [Become a sponsor](https://github.com/sponsors/kdevo)
- ⭐ Give the project a star to ensure everyone finds it
- Start [contributing](https://github.com/kdevo/osprey-delight/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)

## Quickstart

> Please make sure to have [Hugo's extended version](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases) and [Go](https://go.dev/) installed.
> If you're new to Hugo, [visit the docs](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/) for more info and general site setup.

Initialize your repo as a module (replace `` and ``):

```sh
hugo mod init github.com//
```

Download the [documented config file](https://github.com/kdevo/osprey-delight/blob/master/exampleSite/config.yaml), e.g. via curl:

```sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kdevo/osprey-delight/master/exampleSite/config.yaml -O
```

Continue reading for [configuration options](#config).

### Upgrade

Receive the latest features of the theme:

```
hugo mod get -u
```

> It is good practice to [check the release notes](https://github.com/kdevo/osprey-delight/releases) before upgrading.

## Configuration and Usage

It's best if you simply check out the fully commented [config file](https://github.com/kdevo/osprey-delight/blob/master/exampleSite/config.yaml).
This theme follows a learning-by-doing approach.

### Images

This theme is asset-driven! It "knows" how to handle your precious assets, and there usually is no need for manual resizing.
For that to work, provide all of the following images in the [`assets` directory](https://gohugo.io/hugo-pipes/introduction/#asset-directory) (do not use the `static` directory).

The following table shows recommendations regarding the required assets:

Image Type | Config Key | Minimum Width | Note
--------------------|---------------------------------- |------------------------|---------------------------------------------------
Logo | `logoBig` (config.yaml) | 200px | Transparent, minimum margin top/bottom
Navbar-Logo | `logoSmall` (config.yaml) | 96px | Transparent, small margin top/bottom, prefer square format
Gallery | `image` (content/gallery/*) | 400px | Transparent, medium margin top/bottom/left/right, prefer square or landscape format
Background | `background` (config.yaml) | 1920px | Optional, use a high-quality JPG

### Content files

#### About section

To create an about section that renders on the home page, run:

```console
hugo new about.md
```

#### Gallery item

To create a new gallery item, run:

```console
hugo new gallery/my-item.md
```

You will get a fully documented file, which describes each config option separately.

### Contact form

Basin is a free AJAX contact form service that is used by this theme.

To set it up:
1. [Sign up for a free account](https://usebasin.com/users/sign_up) and create a form.
2. Copy and paste your form's URL endpoint to the `ajaxBasin` config.yaml parameter.
3. Select the `Submit this form via AJAX` option on your Basin dashboard.

#### Enable spambot protection

Under "Setup" → "Set a Custom Honeypot Field", input `_anti_spam_honeypot`.
Basin will [ignore all messages that contain this specific field](https://usebasin.com/docs/features/spam-filtering). This should work since there is a hidden field that users normally do not use, but spambots will blindly input their data.

[Please do not make a tick in the "reCAPTCHA" checkbox](https://github.com/kdevo/osprey-delight/discussions/22), this service is not supported and also typically not necessary.
