About Hugo
Hugo was created in 2013 by Steve Francia to provide a faster and more efficient way to build static websites. It was developed as an open-source project written in Go, aiming to simplify the process of generating HTML from Markdown files and support a wide range of templates and themes.
Hugo's strengths include its speed, ease of use, and flexibility with templates and themes. Its weaknesses are a steeper learning curve for beginners and limited dynamic content capabilities. Competitors include Jekyll, Gatsby, and Next.js.
