Hugo Template

Template project for sites built with Hugo, Decap, and Netlify

• Client:
• Netlify URL: https://hugo-template.netlify.app/
• Production URL:

Installing

You need Hugo installed on your machine: https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/

This repository is set up to be developed with Visual Studio Code editor. Please install reccommended extensions listed in extensions.json

If this is your first time running the project, run

npm install and npx husky install

When you have that run one of these commands for local dev server:

hugo server or npm run dev

and open your local site on http://localhost:1313/

Development

We use BEM naming convention for CSS class names.

We follow the standard Javascript style.

Linters

There are 3 linters set up:

• stylelint for CSS
• eslint for JS
• htmlhint for HTML

If quick fixes are possible, VS Code will fix them on save. A pre-commit git hook is also in place. It triggers all 3 linters on staged files, and if there are errors, it prevents the commit.

Deployment

To deploy to production, push to main branch

Development URL

There is no development URL out of the box. To create this environment, follow these steps:

1. create branch develop
2. Go to Netlify dashboard -> your site -> Settings -> Build & deploy -> Deploy contexts -> Edit settings
3. Under Branch deploys select Let me add individual branches and add develop
4. push some code to develop branch and see it on https://develop--hugo-template.netlify.app
