## What is Hugo?
|
|
|
|
[Hugo is a static site generator](https://gohugo.io/); it takes in content in the form of [Markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/) and uses a pre-configured theme to generate HTML from the markdown files. This makes development very fast and the site very lightweight.
|
|
|
|
## Why Hugo?
|
|
|
|
Mostly, we use it because of these two reasons:
|
|
|
|
1. **[Scalable](https://css-tricks.com/comparing-static-site-generator-build-times/#aa-the-results-are-in)**: With its speed and ease of use, Hugo can handle large websites with hundreds of pages without slowing down.
|
|
2. **[Free and Open Source](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo?tab=Apache-2.0-1-ov-file#readme)**: Hugo is completely free to use and open source, so you can customize it however you like or contribute back to the project if you feel inclined.
