## What it is
Hextra is a modern, batteries-included Hugo theme for building beautiful documentation, blog, and static websites. It provides built-in full-text search, dark mode, multilingual support, and rich Markdown shortcodes without requiring Node.js or JavaScript tooling.

## Use cases
- create a documentation site for my open-source project
- build a static blog with Hugo
- make a project docs website hosted on GitHub Pages
- add full-text search to a static docs site
- create a multilingual documentation website
- build a modern static site with dark mode support

## When to choose
- you want a Nextra-like docs experience but prefer Hugo over Next.js
- you need a fast static site with no Node.js dependency
- you want batteries-included features like search, dark mode, i18n, and SEO out of the box
- you deploy to GitHub Pages or any static host

## When to avoid
- you need a dynamic, server-rendered application
- you require heavy custom JavaScript or React components in your theme
- you want a fully bespoke design from scratch rather than a prebuilt theme
