Hugo 2020

This is the repository for my personal website.

💫 About

This repository is the main/"backend" repo for my website. It uses Hugo and is hosted on GitHub Pages.
The GitHub pages repo can be found here

❓ Why Hugo

Hugo is a fairly staightforward static site generator. I always thought I didn't want a static website, as dynamic content would be great for blogs. However, you can create beautiful blogs in Hugo, despite them being static.
The real advantage in static websites lies in their simplicity. The website being static allows it to be hosted on GitHub Pages, where you can host one personal website for free. I recommend anyone building a personal website to give Hugo a shot. You likely won't need dynamic content and the simplicity and lack of hosting costs are a blessing.

💻 Setup

I personally wouldn't recommend copying this repo. You would likely be better off copying the original repository. If you, for whatever reason still want to copy this repository, you can do so like this:

1. Install Hugo

If you want to run this repo you will need to install Hugo first.

2. Clone repo

git clone https://github.com/marcderbauer/hugo-twenty-twenty.git

3. Run locally

cd hugo-twenty-twenty  
hugo server

This will start a local server, which you can (most likely) access at localhost:1313
