## What it is
Archer is a modern Hexo blog theme featuring a sidebar for quick archive, tag, and category navigation, inspired by the yilia and huxpro themes. It is written in SCSS and supports customization such as word counts, RSS, Mermaid diagrams, LaTeX math, and custom fonts.

## Use cases
- theme for my hexo blog
- hexo theme with sidebar navigation
- modern minimal blog theme for hexo
- customize hexo blog appearance
- hexo theme with mermaid and latex support
- static blog theme with tag and category navigation

## When to choose
- You run a Hexo static blog and want a clean, modern theme with sidebar-based archive/tag/category navigation
- You want optional Mermaid diagrams, LaTeX math, RSS, and word-count features out of the box
- You prefer a theme you can fork and customize via SCSS and config files

## When to avoid
- You are not using Hexo as your static site generator
- You need a theme with guaranteed long-term maintenance - the author has stated it is no longer actively maintained and seeks new maintainers
- You need IE9 or older browser support
