- We'll be using
yml/yaml
format for all examples down below, I recommend usingyml
overtoml
as it is easier to read. - You can find any YML to TOML converters if necessary.
Follow Quick Start guide to setup hugo and create a new site.
Note: Use -f to select yml format
hugo new site <name of site> -f yml
Make sure you install latest version of hugo(>=0.74.0)
.
After you have created a new site, at Step 3 follow the steps:
Inside the folder of your Hugo site, run:
git clone https://github.com/adityatelange/hugo-PaperMod themes/PaperMod --depth=1
Note: You may use --branch v3.0
to end of above command if you want to stick to specific release.
Updating theme :
cd themes/PaperMod git pull
you can use as submodule with
git submodule add https://github.com/adityatelange/hugo-PaperMod.git themes/PaperMod --depth=1
git submodule update --init --recursive # needed when you reclone your repo (submodules may not get cloned automatically)
Note: You may use --branch v4.0
to end of above command if you want to stick to specific release.
Updating theme :
git submodule update --remote --merge
Or you can Download as Zip from Github Page and extract in your themes directory
