A Beginner’s Guide to Creating a Static Website with Hugo

Preface

This tutorial describes how to use Hugo , a static site generator (SSG) written in Go . By “static site” I mean a website that consists of pages that are served directly to the client, without any additional server-side processing. SSGs are especially handy when you’re building not-too-complex sites like a personal blog, a product page, an informational resource, and so on.
