This document contains instructions on how to run hugo, and edit the workers.digitalcrunch.com website or if you want to create your own website. This does not cover netlify setup, or cloudflare dns, as those are already setup for this website.

Hugo build and deploy notes
#

We are going to setup hugo on windows to use github and netlify for free hosting of static pages that are fast and secure. The times I have listed are without AI. AI GREATLY speeds up this process by 8x or more. Of course it takes longer the first time but you get faster at it. Out of the box, you don’t “NEED” to design anything. The theme does that. AI can create wonderful content in minutes, but you might spend 1-2 hours verifying, fixing, updating, and polishing it.

Hugo Content Creation

Leaf vs Bundle
#

A “Bundle” would be a group of bundles/leafs (children).
A “Leaf” is a final page, with no children.

For example we have _index.md that are bundles (docs, hugo) and we have leafs (index.md + *.jpg)

Hugo Server

#

Suspected Stale behavior

hugo server --disableFastRender

Nuke it (slow, most aggressive)
