hugo mod init

Initialize this project as a Hugo Module.

Synopsis

Initialize this project as a Hugo Module. It will try to guess the module path, but you may help by passing it as an argument, e.g:

	hugo mod init github.com/gohugoio/testshortcodes

Note that Hugo Modules supports multi-module projects, so you can initialize a Hugo Module
inside a subfolder on GitHub, as one example.

hugo mod init [flags] [args]
