What Quietype is for
Quietype is a block theme for people who mostly write: essays, newsletters, personal blogs. Every template is a single column capped at 42rem — roughly sixty-eight characters a line — with no sidebar and no widget areas, so a post page is the post and little else.
Typography uses system font stacks and a fluid size scale, so text renders on the first paint without downloading a font. A second palette switches on automatically when a visitor's device is set to dark mode, and printing a post strips the navigation and spells out link addresses.
It ships five templates (index, single, page, archive, 404), two template parts (header and footer) and four block styles. There are no patterns to learn and no settings screen; design changes happen in Appearance → Editor.
Who it suits
Writers who want long posts to read comfortably on any screen, and who would rather have no sidebar, no widgets and no third-party requests than a page full of options.
Quietype 內含什麼
- 閱讀行寬鎖定在約 68 個字元（42rem 的 contentSize），行高 1.7，並採用流動式 clamp() 字級級距，從 13px 的圖說文字到 52px 的標題級字型。
- 自動淺色／深色模式：theme.json 中的每個顏色都以預設自訂屬性 (custom property) 參照，因此單一個 prefers-color-scheme 覆寫就能切換整個網站與編輯器畫布。兩套配色皆通過 WCAG AA。
- 零網路請求：只使用系統的 serif、sans 與 mono 字型堆疊。沒有 Google Fonts、沒有圖示 CDN、沒有內建外掛、沒有付費升級推銷、沒有追蹤。
- 無障礙就緒：核心的跳至內容連結（每個範本都提供真正的 <main> 地標）、:focus-visible 外框並以 :focus 作為後備、語意化的 header/main/article/footer 標籤，以及 prefers-reduced-motion 的處理。
- 四款為散文打造的自訂區塊樣式：Hairline 細線與 Asterism 星號分隔線、加框圖片，以及純文字（無線條）引言 — 再加上一個真正落在基線上的首字放大。
- 列印樣式表會移除多餘的介面裝飾，並在內文中展開連結網址，因為長篇讀者仍會列印文章。

常見問題
Quietype 常見問題
What does Quietype need to run?
WordPress 6.5 or later and PHP 7.4 or later, according to its style.css, which also says it was tested up to WordPress 6.8. The current version is 1.0.0.
Does Quietype load any external fonts or scripts?
No. It enqueues only its own stylesheet and uses system serif, sans-serif and monospace font stacks, so it makes no requests to Google Fonts or any other CDN.
How does the Quietype dark mode work?
It follows the visitor's operating-system preference through a prefers-color-scheme media query, which swaps the palette for the site and the editor canvas. There is no toggle button. Text colours in both palettes measure above the WCAG AA contrast ratio of 4.5:1 against their backgrounds.
Can I add a sidebar or widgets to Quietype?
Not out of the box — the layout is deliberately one column and the theme registers no widget areas. You can add blocks to the header or footer template parts in the Site Editor, but a sidebar works against what the theme is for.
Can I remove the Quietype footer credit?
Yes. Open Appearance → Editor → Patterns → Template Parts → Footer, delete the paragraph with the credit and save. Nothing depends on it.
