Building the website locally

Our website was created using hugo, which provides functionality to build the website locally and very simply.

• To install Hugo on your machine using Homebrew:

  brew install Hugo
  

  If you are using other OS or need more detailed instructions to install hugo follow the instructions here.

• Once you have hugo installed, open a terminal in the website directory and execute

  hugo server
  

  There are a bunch of optional arguments you can choose to add after server (i.e., -D) to test various things, but they are not necessary.

• In a web browser, go to http://localhost:1313/ .

You should now see the website built from the local source code! As you add and edit files, save the files and the website will update automatically.
