Intro

We’ll be using yml/yaml format for all examples down below, I recommend using yml over toml as it is easier to read.
You can find any YML to TOML converters if necessary.

教程

Follow Quick Start guide to setup and create a new site.

Note: Use -f to select yml format

hugo new site <name of site> -f yml
