LoveIt is a clean, elegant but advanced blog theme for Hugo.
It is based on the original LeaveIt Theme and KeepIt Theme.
Since the three themes have a similar look, if you have questions about their differences, read Why choose LoveIt so that you can choose the one that works best for you.

- A lot of style detail adjustments, including color, font size, margins, code preview style
- More readable dark mode
- Some beautiful CSS animations
