Hugo is an open-source static site generator written in Go, known for its extremely fast build times and use of Markdown files with templating for generating HTML websites. Developers and technical writers use it to build blogs, documentation sites, and portfolios without a database or server-side runtime. Its speed and simplicity make it a popular alternative to Jekyll or WordPress for content-focused static sites.
