## **0.16.0** TBD
## **0.16.0** June 3nd 2016
Hugo now has:
Hugo 0.16 is our best and biggest release ever. The Hugo community has
outdone itself with continued performance improvements,
[beautiful themes](http://themes.gohugo.io) for all types of sites from project
sites to documentation to blogs to portfolios, and increased stability.
* 8700 (+2000) stars on GitHub
* 284 (+50) contributors
* 77 (+10) themes
This release represents **over 550 contributions by over 110 contributors** to
the main Hugo codebase. Since last release Hugo has **gained 3500 stars, 90
contributors and 23 additional themes.**
This release celebrates 3 years since {{< gh "@spf13" >}} wrote the first lines
of Hugo. During those 3 years Hugo has accomplished some major milestones
including...
* 10,000+ stars on GitHub
* 320+ contributors
* 90+ themes
* 1000s of happy websites
* Many subprojects like {{< gh "@spf13/cobra">}}, {{< gh "@spf13/viper">}} and
{{< gh "@spf13/afero">}} which have experienced broad usage across the Go
ecosystem.
### Highlights
**Partial Builds:** Prior to this release Hugo would always reread and rebuild
the entire site. This release introduces support for reactive site building
while watching (`hugo serve`). Hugo will watch the filesystem for changes and
only re-read the changed files. Depending on the files change Hugo will
intelligently re-render only the needed portion of the site. Performance gains
depend on the operation performed and size of the site. In our testing build
times decreased anywhere from 10% to 99%.
**Template Improvements:** Template improvements continue to be a mainstay of
each Hugo release. Hugo 0.16 adds support for the new `block` keyword
introduced in Go 1.6 as well as many new template functions.
**Polish:** As Hugo matures releases will inevitably contain fewer huge new
features. This release represents hundreds of small improvements across ever
facet of Hugo which will make for a much better experience for all of our users.

### Shoutouts
{{< gh "@bep" >}} led the development of Hugo for the 3rd consecutive release
with nearly half of the contributions to 0.16 in addition to his considerable
contributions as lead maintainer. {{< gh "@anthonyfok" >}}, {{< gh
"@DigitalCraftsman" >}}, {{< gh "@MooreReason" >}} all made significant
contributions. A special thanks to {{< gh "@abourget " >}} for his considerable
work on multilingual support. Due to it's broad impact we wanted to spend more
time testing it and it will be included in Hugo's next release.
