Hello Hugo!

Hugo is a static generator, and from my point of view it’s really fast. Especially if you compare it with Jekyll.
This is just a demo post with tags & categories.

Basic Syntax

Go lang templates are html files with the addition of variables and functions.

Go variables and functions are accessible within {{ }}

Accessing a predefined variable foo:

{{ foo }}

Parameters are separated using spaces

Calling the add function with input of 1, 2:

{{ add 1 2 }}

Methods and fields are accessed via dot notation

Accessing the Page Parameter bar

{{ .Params.bar }}

Parentheses can be used to group items together

{{ if or (isset .Params "alt") (isset .Params "caption") }} Caption {{ end }}

Variables

Each go template has a struct (object) made available to it. In hugo each template is passed either a page or a node struct depending on which type of page you are rendering. More details are available on the variables page.

A variable is accessed by referencing the variable name.

<title>{{ .Title }}</title>

Variables can also be defined and referenced.

{{ $address := "123 Main St."}}
{{ $address }}
