The easiest is to clone Hugo in a directory outside of `GOPATH`, as in the following example: 62 63 ```bash 64 mkdir $HOME/src 65 cd $HOME/src 66 git clone https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo.git 67 cd hugo 68 go install 69 ``` 70 71 **If you are a Windows user, substitute the `$HOME` environment variable above with `%USERPROFILE%`.** 72 73 If you want to compile with Sass/SCSS support use `--tags extended` and make sure `CGO_ENABLED=1` is set in your go environment. If you don't want to have CGO enabled, you may use the following command to temporarily enable CGO only for hugo compilation: 74 75 ```bash 76 CGO_ENABLED=1 go install --tags extended 77 ``` 78 79 ## The Hugo Documentation 80 81 The Hugo documentation now lives in its own repository, see https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs. But we do keep a version of that documentation as a `git subtree` in this repository. To build the sub folder `/docs` as a Hugo site, you need to clone this repo: 82 83 ```bash 84 git clone git@github.com:gohugoio/hugo.git 85 ``` 86 ## Contributing to Hugo 87 88 For a complete guide to contributing to Hugo, see the [Contribution Guide](CONTRIBUTING.md). 89 90 We welcome contributions to Hugo of any kind including documentation, themes, 91 organization, tutorials, blog posts, bug reports, issues, feature requests, 92 feature implementations, pull requests, answering questions on the forum, 93 helping to manage issues, etc. 94 95 The Hugo community and maintainers are [very active](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pulse/monthly) and helpful, and the project benefits greatly from this activity. 96 97 ### Asking Support Questions 98 99 We have an active [discussion forum](https://discourse.gohugo.io) where users and developers can ask questions. 100 Please don't use the GitHub issue tracker to ask questions. 101 102 ### Reporting Issues 103 104 If you believe you have found a defect in Hugo or its documentation, use 105 the GitHub issue tracker to report the problem to the Hugo maintainers. 106 If you're not sure if it's a bug or not, start by asking in the [discussion forum](https://discourse.gohugo.io). 107 When reporting the issue, please provide the version of Hugo in use (`hugo version`). 108 109 ### Submitting Patches 110 111 The Hugo project welcomes all contributors and contributions regardless of skill or experience level. 112 If you are interested in helping with the project, we will help you with your contribution. 113 Hugo is a very active project with many contributions happening daily. 114 115 We want to create the best possible product for our users and the best contribution experience for our developers, 116 we have a set of guidelines which ensure that all contributions are acceptable. 117 The guidelines are not intended as a filter or barrier to participation. 118 If you are unfamiliar with the contribution process, the Hugo team will help you and teach you how to bring your contribution in accordance with the guidelines. 119 120 For a complete guide to contributing code to Hugo, see the [Contribution Guide](CONTRIBUTING.md). 121 122 [](https://github.com/igrigorik/ga-beacon) 123 124 [Go]: https://golang.org/ 125 [Hugo Documentation]: https://gohugo.io/overview/introduction/ 126 127 ##
