Are you interested in building your own website? If so, this course can help by showing how to use Hugo—an open-source static site generator—to build cloud-based websites that are fast, inexpensive, and secure. Instructor Nate Barbettini explains how static sites work, and when you might want to use them instead of WordPress and other options. He also demonstrates how to set up Hugo and create a new project from scratch. Plus, he shows how to build a site and set up a deployment pipeline using GitHub, Travis CI, and Amazon Web Services.
