Local development

Clone repository including submodules

Clone Repository locally with the recursive flag --recursive to clone the repository including its submodules. In case you already ran git without --recursive, you can alternatively run git submodule update --init --recursive additionally when inside the repository's root folder (see also Sample Configuration Method 2).

Install Hugo

Make sure you have installed the latest Hugo version (>=0.128.0). In case apt install hugo only installs and old version, download the latest binary for your OS from Hugo's Github repository (on WSL, use the _Linux-64bit.deb variant) and install it (on WSL, do apt install ./hugo_x.y.z_Linux-64bit.deb). Run hugo version to verify your installed version.

Create new post

Enable draft rendering

Edit config.yml and set buildDrafts to true or add the flag --buildDrafts when serving locally.
