Academica
Academica is a WordPress theme by WPZOOM (Free). Tested on 2026-10-12 with Google Lighthouse via PageSpeed Insights on its own demo store, it scores 100 for mobile speed and 100 for desktop speed, 50/50 for SEO and 100/100 for accessibility (mobile/desktop, 0–100). On its marketplace it is rated 3.4 out of 5 from 12 reviews. Note: its demo home page is light — 119 KB in 12 requests — where a stocked storefront is usually 1–4 MB, so the speed score flatters it.
