Hi.

Im new to Hugo and so far i like it very much. I plan to build sites using this platform but would like to also use the getJSON for getting posts from a headless WordPress.

Does anyone know of any good tutorials for setting up something like this.

My main requirements are

[www.mydomain.com](http://www.mydomain.com) - Main Frontend Website  
[api.mydomain.com](http://api.mydomain.com) - WordPress Install.

Build site pages in Hugo

Home  
About  
Posts  
Contact

On the homepage i would like to display 3 latest posts.  
On the posts page display all the posts  
Posts Single - Have Hugo generate the pages for the single posts.

If someone could point me to a good tutorial to help me achieve this that would be awesome, or if someone has already done this and is willing to help me i would be prepared to pay a donation for some help.

Regards

Mark

Hugo doesn’t do this yet. You’ll need to use a another step to slice up your JSON into individual files to get single posts rendered via Hugo.

The good news is: it’s being worked on and when we get it there will be a deluge of API-driven Hugo tutorials. 🙂
