MY first git hub hugo repo

This HUGO project is basic. Still was my first time using Hugo. It's the fastest static site generator.

Good to maintain blogs or content-based static sites.

Will sure learn more and make a better site.


My experience

It was fun learning something new. It's easy for beginners but the file system in it seems a bit confusing.

What I remember

  1. Basic hugo terminal cmd's
  2. If you don't want to make a custom site just use hugo themes you can git clone it into the themes folder
  • As you then just need to write content
  • You may need to get comfortable with the theme
  1. If you want your own theme
  • goto layout

  • make _deafaults then in side it list.html and single.html (also a baseof.html if you want)

  • you can add your components to a new folder partials

  • add 404.html to layout

  • you can make a new folder for a particular type of content like categories and can make a single page for it

  • static is where you write css, js, also you can add images

  • I didn't use the data folder but it's to store some .json . maybe ( you don't need a full database just use the data folder)

  • archetypes - it's used to make a base layout for all new md files you create

  • hugo.toml is your config file you can change the title add params, taxonomies

note

I am a beginner So it's my first impressions I just know basic html,css and js. (I should revise them as I am forgetting them. Cause I didn't use them for a long time to make any projects)
