A+ sound and voice. You could make videos about anything. No errs, no umms. Tip top clear delivery.
This was GREAT!! Thanks, first video I've watched on Hugo and I already feel like I'm ready to get started. Great overview of what it can do and the speed to get up and running quickly. I used to program with ColdFusion back in the day, but think this will be my go to for now.
Essentially just have to know some HTML, CSS, and have to be able to read and work out information obtained from Hugo's own documentation. Which is excellent BTW, one of the best I have seen. That is how I learned to use Hugo at least.
AWESOME ... nice how you address all USERS of diff, "skill sets"..this is very important 4 beginners who may feel overwhelmed.
Wow I’m stunned by how fast Hugo builds! I’ve used Jekyll for the last few years (the OG SSG) and it takes about 2-3 seconds to build a small site. I thought that was pretty fast, but this blows that out of the water!
For each of the 2 limited sites I run with Hugo, it says it takes 10-20ms to build on my computer. My eyes don't work fast enough to confirm that. lol
Thanks for the video. I always wanted to create a personal blog website but don't know web programming. So I will stick with hugo from now on.
I'm a long time Jekyll user but I've kept my eye on Hugo. Might take some time to learn it.
Great tutorial!! Nice info
Great Video!
Thanks for the tutorial
I just build a site with Hugo, it’s so easy and it’s a lot easier than I through
Once i build a site and uloaded the contents of PUBLIC to my site, what is the process for creating new post. Should i re-upload all the contents in public folder agian? Or only one new markdown file can only be uploaded?
Wonder how responsive this one is. Very very interesting. Ima do this on the weekend.
Is there a way to push changes only to the server? or, do you need to do a build and upload the entire website each time you make a change?
Hugo is awesome! For me I love Astro!
I have actually been building some pretty good websites with sveltekit, HUGO and web components. Getting static site performance but with dynamic elements and being visible to search engines and bots.
Thank you for your time and expertise, a great video!
It would be cool to see ghost vs hugo vs ghost shootout of the blog servers!
A year later, I'm trying out Hugo. I already noticed that there isn't a config.toml file. They must have removed that from the default installation. It looks like the theme installation and other details have changed as well.
Why did you give up on using HUGO? It's been nearly a year since this video and your website is still on wordpress. By the way you still have the sample page link in the navigation bar.
Probably using GitHub
Great stuff 😀. Also could you let me know which Linux distro is this? It looks pretty cool ☺️want to shift from windows to Linux
The distro is manjaro linux, a really good distro although not for complete beginners tho
@@saidneder41 Thank you ☺️🙏
Did you switch?
What distro is this?
which os is that looks neat
I believe it's Manjaro Linux
is Hugo good captivity with language like Arabic or Persian?
Yes.
When I try to add the theme, I get an error:
'cp' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
what should I do?
check out hugo's website for copy of the configuration text, then paste the text into the config.toml while using sudo nano config.toml from terminal.
Can I offer this to my clients? I don't like working with Wordpress...
@Kurt M. I agree, it's hard to hand off a Hugo site without editing capabilities. You could add NetlifyCMS (unsupported) to Hugo or use a project like Plentico (I'm the creator) if you want an integrated CMS that can save changes in the browser instead of editing markdown locally.
Why did you switch to Ghost?
that is my question to...
wp2static
Things just got serious
I build my own content management systems in php and MySQL. So much better than WordPress. I love VS Code as well
But is it as secure as Wordpress?
It's just HTML. Nothing to hack really unless someone gets into your FTP server.
I'm gonna tell you a secret: WordPress is written on PHP.
@@TuxraGamer HUGO is just HTML*
@@TechHut Oh, yes, yes, I know. Was replying to Phil who said that his websites are better than WordPress because they're written in plain PHP and MySQL lol.
what linux distro is this?
If you're building such a simple blog, why did you use wordpress in the first place?
and now he uses ghost
Govern-mints use this?! CIA!?
