Create a Website with Hugo

Hugo is a powerful static website generator with a bunch of nice themes. So why not start using it for your own website.

hugo new site merfeld.info
cd merfeld.info; git init

A good starting point for a blog could be the hugo-coder theme. Cause it’s lean and clean. Add luizdepra’s github repo as a submodule to your project.

git submodule add https://github.com/luizdepra/hugo-coder.git themes/hugo-coder
cp -r themes/hugo-coder/exampleSite/* .

Start hugo’s build in server and check the site on http://localhost:1313

hugo server -D
