Motivations

I created and maintain a feature-rich theme - Hugo Bootstrap Theme, but I didn’t think about modularity at the beginning of the development, and when developing a new theme, I realized that I couldn’t reuse existing features very well. So, I set out to modularize the theme’s functionalities, aiming to make theme development easier.
