hugo: Create a new Hugo theme (themes may also be downloaded from https://themes.gohugo.io/).
$ hugo new theme ${theme_name}
try on your machine
This command is used in command-line interface (CLI) of Hugo, a popular open-source static site generator. The purpose of this command is to create a new theme (or template) for a Hugo site.
Here's how the command works:
- "hugo": It is the CLI command for running Hugo.
- "new theme": This is the specific command to create a new theme.
- "${theme_name}": It is a placeholder for the name of the theme you want to create. You need to replace "${theme_name}" with an actual name for your theme. For example, if you want to create a theme named "mytheme", you would replace "${theme_name}" with "mytheme".
When you execute this command in the command-line interface, Hugo will create a new theme folder with the specified name. This theme folder will have a basic structure and some default files that you can customize to design your own theme. It provides a starting point for developing a customized theme for a Hugo site.
