About

Face it

This is an example site for the Relearn theme of the Hugo static site generator.

It displays content about the fictional ship The Purple Pulpo in English and a crude Piratish accent. Don’t take it too serious.

The goal with this site is to showcase a minimal example with as less configuration as possible. It is meant to be a starting point for your own website. The configuration files are documented to help you understand the reason behind certain settings.

Run it

The source code for this website is contained in the Relearn repository. After the installation of Hugo you can build the site locally from inside the exampleSite directory with

hugo server

Then you can access the site by navigating to http://localhost:1313 in your browser.

For a detailed installation guide, see the Relearn documentation.

Modify it

While minimal in configuration, this showcase contains an auto translation into the Piratish language. This required some additional files and directories, totally unnecessary for a simple site. You can delete them if you use this site as a starting template. Namely these are:

  • content/pir/
  • i18n/
  • layouts/partials/shortcodes/piratify.html
  • layouts/partials/toc.html
  • layouts/shortcodes/piratify.html

You will also have to add this to the hugo.toml to deactivate the translation:

disableLanguages = ['pir']

or remove all references to the Piratish language.
