If you don’t want to think of anything but want to get a working blog, do this. This guide assumes that you already installed the Hugo-extended version
-
Make a folder that will contain the blog source code.
-
Go to the folder directory you made in step 1, and create a new Hugo site by typing
hugo new site .
Keep in mind that there is a
.
at the end. -
Download the hugo-theme-zzo repository. I recommend to use
submodule
, but this is just a quick start guide. -
Make the
zzo
folder in the themes folder and unzip the downloaded repository to the folder(root/themes/zzo). -
In the zzo folder you made, you can see the exampleSite folder. There are four folders inside the folder(config, content, resources, static). Just copy-paste them to your project root folder. (delete overlapping folders before you do this)
-
Now, you are good to go. Run Hugo by typing
hugo server
at your root directory.
