Hugo converts source files from content formats to output formats. In production it only creates files. For development it has an integrated webserver.
The conversion from content to output is controlled by configuration and template files.
The docs are at https://gohugo.io/documentation/
If a specific Hugo version is required use hvm to install it in the working directory; this also applies to version keywords like latest, oldest, minimal
latest is supported by hvm. If the user requiers oldest or minimal, look into theme.toml under module.hugoVersion.min:
hvm use latest - Use the latest Hugo versionhvm use 0.141.0 - Use a specific version if minimal version is 0.141.0Run the webserver for testing changes.
Run the webserver on Hugo's on a non-default port of 3131.
cd <directory-of-content-directory> && hugo server -p 3131
To run Hugo on the default port 1313 (which is often blocked)
cd <directory-of-content-directory> && hugo server
If you need a full understanding of all available parameters
hugo help
