<p>Hello, all.</p>
<p>I've just spent a few weeks creating a new theme for digiKam's
HTML gallery tool. The aims of the new theme are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Generate pages using valid HTML5 markup (replacing the old
XHTML 1.0 markup of previous themes).</li>
<li>Make available several responsive visual styles defined by
CSS3 stylesheets.</li>
<li>Generate pages using UTF-8 character encoding to allow
non-Latin characters to be rendered correctly in photo captions.</li>
<li>Use the PhotoSwipe interactive gallery module (replacing the
LyteBox gallery module).</li>
</ul>
<p>See??<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.bobulous.org.uk/gallery/digikam/">this page</a>
for links to example galleries using each of the four visual
styles currently included with the new theme.</p>
<p>The new theme, and instructions on how to use it with digiKam,
can be found on my <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://gitlab.com/Bobulous/digikam-html5-gallery-theme">GitLab
project page</a>.</p>
<p>Try it out and let me know what you think. If people like it and
there are no outstanding technical (or licensing) problems then I
like the idea that this theme might be included in the digiKam
distribution at some point in the future.<br>
