Hugo is a static website generator written in Go. Hugo is well known for its speed and claims to be the "worlds fastest" static website generator. It competes successfully against other "heavyweight" content management systems such as WordPress when dynamic content isn't needed.

Hugo website content is written lightweight human readable document description languages such as Markdown or ASCIIDoc. Configuration can be specified in YAML, TOML, or JSON.

Installation

`sass`	Enable SASS/SCSS support
`test`	Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently)
