To start this website locally you will need to have Hugo installed. If you don’t already have Hugo installed please follow the official installation guide.
The site uses Hugo Pipes to compile SCSS and minify assets. Please make sure you have the Hugo Extended version installed. If you are not using the extended version this theme will not not compile.
To check your version of Hugo, run:
hugo version
This will output the currently installed version of Hugo. Make sure you see /extended
after the version number, for example Hugo Static Site Generator v0.51/extended darwin/amd64 BuildDate: unknown
You do not need to use version v0.51 specifically, you can use any version of Hugo above 0.51. It just needs to have the /extended
part
For local development run Hugo’s built-in local server which will watch changes made and update the content in browser:
hugo server
Now enter localhost:1313
ess bar of your browser.
