It should not be necessary but, try deleting ananke from your theme folder if you won’t be using it.

@plena , I expect to see the output from your themes directory as shown above to show up in your project tree, under themes. I don’t have much else to contribute. That seems kinda odd. It might be worth it to start the quick start over, fresh.

Thank you @maiki for the suggestion. I started fresh and it still doesn’t work. Here’s what I did: $ hugo version Hugo Static Site Generator v0.49/extended darwin/amd64 BuildDate: unknown $ hugo new site hugo-quick Congratulations! Your new Hugo site is created in ... $ cd hugo-quick/ $ git init …
