Hugo Simpledoc Theme is a simple and clean documentation theme for Hugo. Also you may use it for building a FAQ-page or generating an online book (why not?). This theme is a very-slightly-modified Hugo port of great WPThemeDoc.
- Clean design
- One page
- Responsive
- Easely customizable
- Hugo!
- Install Hugo and create a new site.
- Install hugo simpledoc theme. Inside your new Hugo project run:
$ cd themes
$ git clone https://github.com/aerohub/hugo-simpledoc-theme
Then take a look inside the exampleSite folder of this theme. You'll find a file called config.toml and a folder archetypes. Copy them into the root folder of your Hugo site.
Open just-copied config.toml and fill it with your data. Pay attention for top menu items.
Now you are ready to create your documentation
OK, all you need is just write!
Run in the root of your project:
hugo new my-first-doc-item.md
Then open the file with your favorite text editor and you will see something like this:
---
title: "My First Doc Item"
date: 2017-12-12T00:57:40+03:00
anchor: "my-first-doc-item"
weight:
---
Write your doc chapter and give it a weight. You may organize your content as you like (even with folders) but All the docs are ranged by weight here! Well, the structure of your docs may look like this:
content
├── credits-thanks-and-license.md
├── getting-started.md
├── hugo-simpledoc-theme.md
├── license.md
├── serving-and-building.md
└── writing-documentation.md
but they are ordered by weight you set in frontmatter.
In order to see your site in action, run Hugo's built-in local server.
$ hugo server -w
Now enter localhost:1313 in the address bar of your browser.
Just run
$ hugo
You'll find your documentation files in public folder in the root of Hugo project.
