This quick start uses `macOS` in the examples. For instructions about how to install Hugo on other operating systems, see [install](/getting-started/installing).
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to have [Git installed](https://git-scm.com/downloads) to run this tutorial.

## Step 1: Install Hugo
|
|
|
|
{{% note %}}
|
|
`Homebrew`, a package manager for `macOS`, can be installed from [brew.sh](https://brew.sh/). See [install](/getting-started/installing) if you are running Windows etc.

|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install hugo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To verify your new install:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
hugo version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{< asciicast ItACREbFgvJ0HjnSNeTknxWy9 >}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Step 2: Create a New Site
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
hugo new site quickstart
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above will create a new Hugo site in a folder named `quickstart`.

|
|
|
|
|
|
## Step 3: Add a Theme
|
|
|
|
See [themes.gohugo.io](https://themes.gohugo.io/) for a list of themes to consider. This quickstart uses the beautiful [Ananke theme](https://themes.gohugo.io/gohugo-theme-ananke/).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd quickstart
|
|
|
|
# Download the theme
|
|
git init
|
|
git submodule add https://github.com/budparr/gohugo-theme-ananke.git themes/ananke
|
|
# Note for non-git users:
|
|
# - If you do not have git installed, you can download the archive of the latest
|
|
# version of this theme from:
|
|
# https://github.com/budparr/gohugo-theme-ananke/archive/master.zip
|
|
# - Extract that .zip file to get a "gohugo-theme-ananke-master" directory.
|
|
# - Rename that directory to "ananke", and move it into the "themes/" directory.
|
|
# End of note for non-git users.
|
|
|
|
# Edit your config.toml configuration file
|
|
# and add the Ananke theme.
|
|
echo 'theme = "ananke"' >> config.toml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{< asciicast 7naKerRYUGVPj8kiDmdh5k5h9 >}}
|
|
|
|
## Step 4: Add Some Content
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hugo new posts/my-first-post.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{{< asciicast eUojYCfRTZvkEiqc52fUsJRBR >}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Edit the newly created content file if you want.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Step 5: Start the Hugo server
|
|
|
|
Now, start the Hugo server with [drafts](/getting-started/usage/#draft-future-and-expired-content) enabled:
|
|
|
|
{{< asciicast BvJBsF6egk9c163bMsObhuNXj >}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```

|
|
|
|
|
|
## Step 6: Customize the Theme
|
|
|
|
Your new site already looks great, but you will want to tweak it a little before you release it to the public.
|
|
|
|
### Site Configuration
|
|
|
|
Open up `config.toml` in a text editor:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
baseURL = "https://example.org/"
|
|
languageCode = "en-us"
|
|
title = "My New Hugo Site"
|
|
theme = "ananke"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Replace the `title` above with something more personal. Also, if you already have a domain ready, set the `baseURL`. Note that this value is not needed when running the local development server.
|

**Tip:** Make the changes to the site configuration or any other file in your site while the Hugo server is running, and you will see the changes in the browser right away, though you may need to [clear your cache](https://kb.iu.edu/d/ahic).
