  • 5.26.2020 - [ss] Adi to figure out how to display the menu on Visual Studio Cdoe OR Notes to run Hugo for local test site in Visual studio code. All the following should be installed in the Mac terminal and NOT inside Visual Studio Code

    1. Install Hugo for Mac (make sure to install the extended version)

    2. Go INSIDE the Visual Studio Code and open a new terminal (inside Visual SC) Run the following:

      git submodule update --recursive --remote
      hugo serve       
      
      

      Note the output. Hugo will tell you where the local test website is installed. Default is localhost:1313

      To see the local website - open a browser in mac and enter

       http://localhost:1313
      

    That’s all, folks !
