Sample content #

+++
title = "My Minimal Blog"
featured_image = "/images/home.jpg"
+++

Welcome — this is the homepage introduction. Recent posts appear below.

+++
title = "About"
+++

A few words about me and this blog.

+++
title = "First post"
date = 2026-06-06T10:00:00+07:00
description = "The very first post on this blog."
tags = ["hugo", "ananke"]
+++

Hello world — this is my first post.

What it looks like #

The homepage shows the introduction text and a list of recent posts (newest first). The header uses /images/home.jpg as a hero, or a black background if the image is absent. Each post shows its reading time.

A two-language site (English and German) with side-by-side content and translated menus.

This is the English homepage.

Das ist die deutsche Startseite.

The about page is translated the same way: content/about.md and content/about.de.md.

No-blog Static Site

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 08:00:00 +0700

A simple brochure site with a homepage and a few standalone pages — no blog or post list.

│ ├── hugo.toml
│ ├── module.toml
│ ├── menus.toml

└── content/
 ├── _index.md
 ├── about.md
 └── services.md

Configuration #

# config/_default/hugo.toml

baseURL = "https://example.com/"
languageCode = "en-gb"
title = "Example Studio"
enableRobotsTXT = true

# config/_default/module.toml

[[imports]]
path = "github.com/gohugo-ananke/ananke/v2"

# config/_default/menus.toml

[[main]]
name = "Home"
pageRef = "/"
weight = 10

[[main]]
name = "Services"
pageRef = "/services/"
weight = 20

[[main]]
name = "About"
pageRef = "/about/"
weight = 30

# config/_default/params.toml

[ananke]
show_recent_posts = false

Sample content #

+++
title = "Example Studio"
featured_image = "/images/studio.jpg"
+++

We design and build small, fast websites. Get in touch to start a project.

+++
title = "Services"
+++

What we offer and how we work.

+++
title = "About"
+++

Who we are.

What it looks like #

The homepage shows only the introduction and hero image — no post list, because show_recent_posts is false. The menu links the standalone pages.
