This demo is also build in Hugo:
https://demo.cms.usecue.com/
The original application is a PHP application with a closed source (Usecue CMS). This demo is a mockup of that application. A counterintuitive choice, but it works pretty well for me.

Here is another one… a very minimalistic website (just 130kb): https://www.martijnroelandse.dev/
… and another small (Dutch) website (170kb with a perfect Google Lighthouse score): https://www.tandartspraktijkderoos.preview.usecue.com/
These pages load in about 150ms from Frankfurt (according to Pingdoms synthetic test).

I like it. Impressive CV; let the content talk. Any reason you’re not running with hugo --minify to save some … more bytes?

Thank you! And a great suggestion!
- Hugo public dir non-minified: 32 items, totalling 480,2 KiB (491.684 bytes)
- Hugo public dir minified: 32 items, totalling 476,2 KiB (487.614 bytes)
- Difference on the homepage (minified or not): 500 bytes
- The average gain is less than 1% for this (already optimized) website
In THIS case I can safely omit the minify command, but I will benchmark it on other websites as well. Thank you for pointing me to it!
I’ve got an interesting use case here. My personal blog is running Hugo: https://cosmiccoding.com.au/
However, the book review list.html template here is actually a fusion of both Hugo and arrow.js, where Hugo generates the JS datastructure and arrow.js uses html templates to create an interactive layout that would have been very painful with vanilla JS.

Dunno if it’s cool, but I’m pretty proud of the docs site I’ve built: Pachyderm Docs: 2.5.x
I built this one too, but it’s undergone some significant changes since I took another job. Still Hugo though https://help.bolt.com/

A generator meta element would be nice.

A very lightweight Dutch website (onepager) with custom layout: https://www.donnaforte.nl/. The page weighs 150kb and has a 100, 100, 100, 100 Google Lighthouse score.
The content is really clean and looks like this:

> De avond voordat de tumor uit m’n borst verwijderd zou worden, bedacht ik dat ik graag een mooie foto van m’n borsten had willen laten maken…
Ik, Helene de Roos, ben fotograaf en inmiddels hersteld van de behandelingen tegen borstkanker.
Tussen het slechte nieuws en de operatie of de chemo zit weinig tijd en komt er veel op je af. Toch denk ik dat het fijn is om in die onrustige periode een mooi portret van jezelf te laten maken. Dit zou ik graag willen doen in de prettige omgeving van mijn studio of als je dat fijner vindt, bij jou thuis.

## Kosten
Vanaf 75 euro maak ik een digitale serie van minimaal vijf foto’s bij je thuis en een door jou uitgekozen foto zal worden afgedrukt.
Vanaf 55 euro kunnen er foto’s bij mij op de studio worden gemaakt.
Bovenstaande bedragen zijn exclusief BTW.
Buiten de regio Den Haag reken ik 20 cent per km extra.

And a very similar one-pager with a little more flair < 2MB: https://www.deroos-swaap.nl
Hugo is a super powerful tool if you want to build small performant websites like this. Bigger websites work as well, obviously… but the small ones are the most fun to build IMO.

I had reason to run across
which I assume is only not on the list because @jmooring doesn’t use the forum to promote his business and is being very ethical about his position on the forum.
Also, if you have not read his Hugo articles, I now consider it required reading for those who really want to understand how to use Hugo.
Kudos Joe (and thank you for the ethical approach).

This is very cool: GitHub - zeon-studio/hugoplate: Hugo and Tailwindcss boilerplate
