A site can now use a theme from a git repository. smalldocs add org/repo copies the theme into the folder _extensions/ of the project, and theme: <name> uses it. The same folder can hold a theme for Quarto, so one repository serves both tools. smalldocs themes lists the themes and where each came from. See Themes.

smalldocs-tufte is the first such theme. It gives a site the look of Tufte CSS, in a light mode and a dark mode. Its demo shows it.

A page can now put content in the margin, as Quarto does:
