Hugo is a highly performant tool and framework for generating static websites from markdown, structured data, and web APIs. It is a self-contained native binary with all the dependencies included in a single executable to avoid the dependency-hell with other technologies. Hundreds of curated theme are available for getting a nice looking static site started.
Hugo shines in creating project and documentation sites, blogs, and sites that are managed with static content. User comments can be supported with 3rd party commenting systems, such as Disqus, Cactus, and many others.
Like git, Hugo has a bit of learning curve to get started. Go knowledge is not required, but understanding the underlying model is key to avoiding frustration.
