The release notes for v0.84 mention that Hugo modules and themes can use the Configuration Directory. However, I could not get this to work.
I added my theme in my site’s config as follows:
theme: github.com/UtkarshVerma/hugo-yami
module:
imports:
- path: github.com/UtkarshVerma/hugo-yami
What’s weird is that Hugo does detect that folder, but the configurations aren’t applied.

If I copy the config
folder from my theme to website, then the website builds fine.
