Hello world

Let's create our first content file for your documentation. Open a terminal and add the following command for each new file you want to add. Replace <section-name> with a general term that describes your document in detail.

hugo new <section-name>/filename.md

Visitors of your website will find the final document under www.example.com/<section-name>/filename/.

Since it's possible to have multiple content files in the same section I recommend to create at least one index.md file per section. This ensures that users will find an index page under www.example.com/<section-name>.

Homepage

To add content to the homepage you need to add a small indicator to the frontmatter of the content file:

type: index

Otherwise the theme will not be able to find the corresponding content file.

Table of contents

You maybe noticed that the menu on the left contains a small table of contents of the current page. All <h2> tags (## Headline in Markdown) will be added automatically.

Admonitions

Admonition is a handy feature that adds block-styled side content to your documentation, for example hints, notes or warnings. It can be enabled by using the corresponding shortcodes inside your content:

{{</* note title="Note" */>}}
Nothing to see here, move along.
{{</* /note */>}}

This will print the following block:

{{< note title="Note" >}} Nothing to see here, move along. {{< /note >}}

The shortcode adds a neutral color for the note class and a red color for the warning class. You can also add a custom title:

{{</* warning title="Don't try this at home" */>}}
Nothing to see here, move along.
{{</* /warning */>}}

This will print the following block:

{{< warning title="Don't try this at home" >}} Nothing to see here, move along. {{< /warning >}}
