Reader view is not available for posts

[Vlaaaaaaad]

Hi,

I recently started using the theme and I am super happy with it! There's one small draw-back: when I go to a post I don't get a pretty "Show Reader View" in Safari or Firefox. Based on my research I would assume it would not be a thing in Edge or Instapaper either.

Would a PR changing the posts to support Reader View be accepted? Is anybody else working on this?

Resources I found helpful:

Do you ever look back at code you wrote a year ago and get a deep and pervasive feeling of 🤦🏻‍♀️?

This would be a more than welcome PR, @Vlaaaaaaad!

Nonono, do not facepalm! This theme is awesome!

I'll try to submit a PR over this weekend. If I can't swing it, I'll aim for sometime next week.

Aaaaand I was wrong. The reader mode works very much ok --- it's the reader icon that does not appear by default. Which is a tiny inconvenience.

Can I fix that?

Also I took your issue at more than literal value - the templates are missing many of those best-practice HTML tags mentioned in the resources you linked, like <main>, which can help reader view figure out how to prettily display content. I’ve just pushed some updates.

Sure!
