<p>Th' follow'n steps be here t' help ye initialize yer new website. If ye don’t know Cap'n Hugo at all, we strongly suggest ye learn more about it by follow'n this <ahref="https://gohugo.io/overview/quickstart/"target="_blank">great documentat'n fer beginners</a>.</p>
<p>Alternatively, ye can <ahref="https://github.com/McShelby/hugo-theme-relearn/archive/main.zip"target="_blank">download th' theme as .zip</a> file an' extract it 'n th' <code>themes</code> directory</p>
<p>If ye install th' theme from yer git repository or GitHub, ye have several opt'ns.</p>
<p>If ye use th' <code>head</code> o' th' <code>main</code> branch, ye be us'n th' development version. Usually it be fully functional but can break from time t' time. We try t' fix newly introduced bugs 'n this version as soon as poss'ble.</p>
<p>Additionally ye can checkout one o' th' tagged versions. These tagged versions correspond t' an official <ahref="https://github.com/McShelby/hugo-theme-relearn/releases"target="_blank">releases from th' GitHub repository</a>.</p>
<p>Besides th' usual version tags (eg <code>1.2.3</code>) there be also tags fer th' main version (eg. <code>1.2.x</code>), major version (eg. <code>1.x</code>) an' th' latest (just <code>x</code>) released version mak'n it easier fer ye t' pin th' theme t' a certain version.</p>
<p>When build'n th' website, ye can set a theme by us'n <code>--theme</code> opt'n. However, we suggest ye modify th' configurat'n file (<code>config.toml</code>) an' set th' theme as th' default. Ye can also add th' <code>[outputs]</code> section t' en'ble th' search functionality.</p>
