I’ve been going through the video tutorials for Hugo created by Mike Dane, which I’m finding really helpful in getting up to speed. If you’re new to Hugo like me, I highly recommend them. Start here:
I’ve started a new, experimental, blog on the open source ‘static site generator’ Hugo. It’s being deployed by Netlify, via GitHub.
This was inspired by my recent column about static site generators (SSG) on The New Stack, where I’m a senior editor and weekly columnist. Specifically, I wrote about Gatsby and the fast-growing web development trend known as JAMstack. Read my column for the details, but the upshot: this is a new, cloud native, way of publishing a website.
