Hugo Section Idea

In hugo, every folder under content we call it a “section”. You have to organize your file in your own way that can reduce the extra configuration for hugo.

It’s a great design idea! I had used hexo for 1 year and publish 30+ article. It some kind of messy and hard to manage. Hexo depend on cli command to solve this problem.

What do I need?

  1. Create a new archetype in /archetypes (P.S You also could crete in theme//archetype)

  2. Create a new aritcle in your [path to blog root]/content/[section]

section actually is subfolder in content also
