Hugo

A fast and flexible static site generator built with love by bep, spf13, and friends in Go.

Website | Installation | Documentation | Support | Contributing | Mastodon

Overview

Hugo is a static site generator written in Go, optimized for speed and designed for flexibility. With its advanced templating system and fast asset pipelines, Hugo renders a complete site in seconds, often less.

Due to its flexible framework, multilingual support, and powerful taxonomy system, Hugo is widely used to create:

  • Corporate, government, nonprofit, education, news, event, and project sites
  • Documentation sites
  • Image portfolios
  • Landing pages
  • Business, professional, and personal blogs
  • Resumes and CVs

Use Hugo's embedded web server during development to instantly see changes to content, structure, behavior, and presentation. Then deploy the site to your host, or push changes to your Git provider for automated builds and deployment.

Hugo's fast asset pipelines include:

  • CSS Processing Bundle, transform, minify, create source maps, perform SRI hashing, and integrate with PostCSS.
  • Image processing Convert, resize, crop, rotate, adjust colors, apply filters, overlay text and images, and extract metadata
  • JavaScript bundling Transpile TypeScript and JSX to JavaScript, bundle, tree shake, minify, create source maps, and perform SRI hashing.
  • Sass processing Transpile Sass to CSS, bundle, tree shake, minify, create source maps, perform SRI hashing, and integrate with PostCSS
  • Tailwind CSS processing Compile Tailwind CSS utility classes into standard CSS, bundle, tree shake, optimize, minify, perform SRI hashing, and integrate with PostCSS

And with Hugo Modules, you can share content, assets, data, translations, themes, templates, and configuration with other projects via public or private Git repositories.

See the features section of the documentation for a comprehensive summary of Hugo's capabilities.

Editions

Hugo is available in several editions. Use the standard edition unless you need additional features.

Feature standard deploy extended extended/deploy
Core features ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️
Direct cloud deployment (1) ✔️ ✔️
LibSass support (2) ✔️ ✔️

(1) Deploy your site directly to a Google Cloud Storage bucket, an AWS S3 bucket, or an Azure Storage container. See details.

(2) Transpile Sass to CSS via embedded LibSass. Note that embedded LibSass was deprecated in v0.153.0 and will be removed in a future release. Use the Dart Sass transpiler instead, which is compatible with any edition.

You can contribute to the Hugo project by:

Please submit documentation issues and pull requests to the documentation repository.

If you have an idea for an enhancement or new feature, create a new topic on the forum in the "Feature" category. This will help you to:

  • Determine if the capability already exists
  • Measure interest
  • Refine the concept

If there is sufficient interest, create a proposal. Do not submit a pull request until the project lead accepts the proposal.
