Discover what the Hugo **LoveIt** theme is all about and the core-concepts behind it.
<!--more-->
## 1 Requirements
Thanks to the simplicity of Hugo, [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/) is the only dependency of this theme.
Just download latest version of [Hugo (> 0.62.0)](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/installing/) for your OS (Windows, Linux, Mac).
{{< admonition note "Why not support earlier versions of Hugo?" >}}
Since [Markdown Render Hooks](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup/#markdown-render-hooks) was introduced in the [Hugo Christmas Edition](https://gohugo.io/news/0.62.0-relnotes/), this theme only supports Hugo versions above v0.62.0.
{{< /admonition >}}
## 2 Installation
The following steps are here to help you initialize your new website. If you dont know Hugo at all, we strongly suggest you learn more about it by following this [great documentation for beginners](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/).
### 2.1 Create your project
Hugo provides a `new` command to create a new website:
```bash
hugo new site my_website
cd my_website
```
### 2.2 Install the theme
The **LoveIt** themes repository is: [https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt](https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt).
Clone this repository to your hugo **themes** directory:
```bash
git clone -b master https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.git themes/LoveIt
```
Or, create an empty git repository and make this repository a submodule of your site directory:
```bash
git init
git submodule -b master add https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.git themes/LoveIt
```
Alternatively, you can download the latest release of the theme as .zip file and extract it in the **themes** directory.
### 2.3 Basic configuration
The following is a basic configuration for the LoveIt theme:
```toml
baseURL = "http://example.org/"
languageCode = "en"
title = "My New Hugo Site"
# Change the default theme to be use when building the site with Hugo
theme = "LoveIt"
[params]
# LoveIt theme version
version = "0.1.X"
```
{{< admonition note >}}
When building the website, you can set a theme by using `--theme` option. However, we suggest you modify the configuration file (**config.toml**) and set the theme as the default.
{{< /admonition >}}
### 2.4 Create your first post
Here is the way to create your first post:
```bash
hugo new posts/first_post.md
```
Feel free to edit the post file by adding some sample content and replacing the title value in the beginning of the file.
{{< admonition note >}}
By default all posts and pages are created as a draft. If you want to render these pages, remove the property `draft: true` from the metadata or set the property `draft: false`.
{{< /admonition >}}
### 2.5 Launching the website locally
Launch by using the following command:
```bash
hugo serve
```
Go to `http://localhost:1313`.
{{< admonition tip >}}
When you run `hugo serve`, when the contents of the files change, the page automatically refreshes with the changes.
{{< /admonition >}}
### 2.6 Build the website
When your site is ready to deploy, run the following command:
```bash
hugo
```
A `public` folder will be generated, containing all static content and assets for your website. It can now be deployed on any web server.
{{< admonition tip >}}
The website can be automatically published and hosted with [Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) (Read more about [Automated HUGO deployments with Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2015/07/30/hosting-hugo-on-netlifyinsanely-fast-deploys/)).
Alternatively, you can use [Github pages](https://gohugo.io/hosting-and-deployment/hosting-on-github/).
{{< /admonition >}}
## 3 Configuration
### 3.1 `config.toml`
On top of [Hugo global configuration](https://gohugo.io/overview/configuration/), **LoveIt** lets you define the following parameters in your `config.toml` (here, values are default).
{{< admonition >}}
Note that some of these parameters are explained in details in other sections of this documentation.

### 3.2 Favicons, Browserconfig, Manifest
It is recommended to put your own favicons
* apple-touch-icon.png (180x180)
* favicon-32x32.png (32x32)
* favicon-16x16.png (16x16)
* mstile-150x150.png (150x150)
* android-chrome-192x192.png (192x192)
* android-chrome-512x512.png (512x512)
into `/static`. Theyre easily created via [https://realfavicongenerator.net/](https://realfavicongenerator.net/).
Customize `browserconfig.xml` and `site.webmanifest` to set theme-color and background-color.
### 3.3 Add logo and cover for SEO
Add a logo image (127x40) and a cover image (800x600) in the `static` directory.
### 3.4 Style Customization
**LoveIt** has been built to be as configurable as possible by defining custom `.scss` style files.
The directory including the custom `.scss` style files is `config/css` relative to **your project path**.
In `_override.scss`, you can override the variables in `assets/css/_variables.scss` relative to **LoveIt directory** to customize the style.
Here is a example:
```scss
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Fira+Mono:400,700&display=swap&subset=latin-ext');
$code-font-family: Fira Mono, Source Code Pro, Menlo, Consolas, Monaco, monospace;
```
In `_custom.scss`, you can add some css style code to customize the style.
