I’m new to Hugo but I decided to couple it with my AI Vibe Coding environment to have AI build a full content curation and publishing pipeline that publishes documents to a Hugo-based online document library. The library is called The International Foundation for Information Technology (IF4IT) and it exists to share professional knowledge related to IT Management.
At this point, the site is purely “functional” and not “pretty.” It includes document image abstracts, dynamic image hover, search through and for different document types (or all), dynamic switching between document views, between document types, alphabetic views, etc.
I love how easy it is to work with Hugo and especially how blazing fast the static site is but I’m still very much a website developer novice, so i don’t know how to improve things like marketing polish to make the site “look” more appealing. Hugo made is very easy to build a semantic document knowledge graph, where every page is a node in the graph, and every page has many links to other relevant topics (very much like Wikipedia but for IT management content, in this case).
I know the site is crude and very basic but I’d love constructive feedback from the community on how I can improve it, please.
PS: I am SO happy about how easy Hugo made it to get off my old Wordpress site and how much easier it is to work with Hugo.
I’m grateful for any help you can offer. Thanks.
