+
+> Free, no-nonsense, super-fast blogging.
+
+## Demo

+⬛️ [Dark][dark-screenshot]
+
+When the user's browser is running »dark mode«, the dark color scheme will be used automatically. The default is the light/white color scheme. Check out the [`style.html`](https://codeberg.org/alanpearce/zola-bearblog/src/branch/main/templates/style.html)-file for the implementation.
+
+## Installation
+
+If you already have a Zola site on your machine, you can simply add this theme via
+
+```
+git submodule add https://codeberg.org/alanpearce/zola-bearblog themes/zola-bearblog
+```
+
+Then, adjust the `config.toml` as detailed below.
+
+For more information, read the official [setup guide][zola-setup-guide] of Zola.
+
+## Adjust configuration / config.toml
+
+Please check out the included [config.toml](https://codeberg.org/alanpearce/zola-bearblog/src/branch/main/config.toml)
+
+## Content & structure
+
+### Adding / editing content
+
+#### Index-Page
+
+The contents of the `index`-page may be changed by editing your `content/_index.md`-file.
+
+
+### Adding your branding / colors / css
+
+Add a `custom_head.html`-file to your `templates/`-directory. In there you may add a `<style>`-tag, *or* you may add a `<link>`-tag referencing your own `custom.css` (in case you prefer to have a separate `.css`-file). Check out the [`style.html`](https://codeberg.org/alanpearce/zola-bearblog/src/branch/main/templates/style.html)-file to find out which CSS-styles are applied by default.
