Hugo theme Stack supports the creation of interactive image galleries using Markdown. It’s powered by PhotoSwipe and its syntax was inspired by Typlog.

To use this feature, the image must be in the same directory as the Markdown file, as it uses Hugo’s page bundle feature to read the dimensions of the image. External images are not supported.
