## Overview
|
||
|
||
Hugo is a static HTML and CSS website generator written in [Go][].
|
||
It is optimized for speed, ease of use, and configurability.
|
||
Hugo takes a directory with content and templates and renders them into a full HTML website.
|
||
|
||
Hugo relies on Markdown files with front matter for metadata, and you can run Hugo from any directory.
|
||
This works well for shared hosts and other systems where you don’t have a privileged account.
|
||
|
||
Hugo renders a typical website of moderate size in a fraction of a second.
|
||
A good rule of thumb is that each piece of content renders in around 1 millisecond.
|
||
|
||
Hugo is designed to work well for any kind of website including blogs, tumbles, and docs.
|
||
|
||
#### Supported Architectures
|
||
|
||
Currently, we provide pre-built Hugo binaries for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, macOS (Darwin), and [Android](https://gist.github.com/bep/a0d8a26cf6b4f8bc992729b8e50b480b) for x64, i386 and ARM architectures.
|
||
|
||
Hugo may also be compiled from source wherever the Go compiler tool chain can run, e.g. for other operating systems including DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD, Plan 9, and Solaris.
|
||
|
||
**Complete documentation is available at [Hugo Documentation][].**
|
||
|
||
## Choose How to Install
|
||
|
||
If you want to use Hugo as your site generator, simply install the Hugo binaries.
|
||
The Hugo binaries have no external dependencies.
|
||
|
||
To contribute to the Hugo source code or documentation, you should [fork the Hugo GitHub project](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo#fork-destination-box) and clone it to your local machine.
|
||
|
||
Finally, you can install the Hugo source code with `go`, build the binaries yourself, and run Hugo that way.
|
||
Building the binaries is an easy task for an experienced `go` getter.
|
||
|
||
### Install Hugo as Your Site Generator (Binary Install)
|
||
|
||
Use the [installation instructions in the Hugo documentation](https://gohugo.io/overview/installing/).
|
||
|
||
### Build and Install the Binaries from Source (Advanced Install)
|
||
|
||
#### Prerequisite Tools
|
||
|
||
* [Git](http://git-scm.com/)
|
||
* [Go (latest or previous version)](https://golang.org/dl/)
|
||
|
||
#### Vendored Dependencies
|
||
|
||
Hugo uses [dep](https://github.com/golang/dep) to vendor dependencies, but we don't commit the vendored packages themselves to the Hugo git repository. Therefore, a simple `go get` is _not_ supported because the command is not vendor aware.
|
||
|
||
The simplest way is to use [mage](https://github.com/magefile/mage) (a Make alternative for Go projects.)
|
||
|
||
#### Fetch from GitHub
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
go get github.com/magefile/mage
|
||
go get -d github.com/gohugoio/hugo
|
||
cd ${GOPATH:-$HOME/go}/src/github.com/gohugoio/hugo
|
||
mage vendor
|
||
mage install
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**If you are a Windows user, substitute the `$HOME` environment variable above with `%USERPROFILE%`.**
|
||
|
||
## The Hugo Documentation
|
||
|
||
The Hugo documentation now lives in its own repository, see https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs. But we do keep a version of that documentation as a `git subtree` in this repository. To build the sub folder `/docs` as a Hugo site, you need to clone this repo:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone git@github.com:gohugoio/hugo.git
|
||
```
|
||

### Asking Support Questions
|
||

If you believe you have found a defect in Hugo or its documentation, use
|
||
the GitHub issue tracker to report the problem to the Hugo maintainers.
|
||
If you're not sure if it's a bug or not, start by asking in the [discussion forum](https://discourse.gohugo.io).

### Submitting Patches
|

Hugo is a very active project with many contributions happening daily.
|
||
|
||
Because we want to create the best possible product for our users and the best contribution experience for our developers,
|
||
we have a set of guidelines which ensure that all contributions are acceptable.
|
||
The guidelines are not intended as a filter or barrier to participation.
|
||
If you are unfamiliar with the contribution process, the Hugo team will help you and teach you how to bring your contribution in accordance with the guidelines.
