Pages organization
In Hugo, pages are the core of your site. Once it is configured, pages are definitely the added value to your documentation site.
Folders
Organize your site like any other Hugo project. Typically, you will have a content folder with all your pages.
content
├── level-one
│ ├── level-two
│ │ ├── level-three
│ │ │ ├── level-four
│ │ │ │ ├── _index.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/level-four
│ │ │ │ ├── page-4-a.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/level-four/page-4-a
│ │ │ │ ├── page-4-b.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/level-four/page-4-b
│ │ │ │ └── page-4-c.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/level-four/page-4-c
│ │ │ ├── _index.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three
│ │ │ ├── page-3-a.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/page-3-a
│ │ │ ├── page-3-b.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/page-3-b
│ │ │ └── page-3-c.md <-- /level-one/level-two/level-three/page-3-c

│ │ ├── page-2-b.md <-- /level-one/level-two/page-2-b
│ │ └── page-2-c.md <-- /level-one/level-two/page-2-c
│ ├── _index.md <-- /level-one
│ ├── page-1-a.md <-- /level-one/page-1-a
│ ├── page-1-b.md <-- /level-one/page-1-b
│ └── page-1-c.md <-- /level-one/page-1-c
├── _index.md <-- /
└── page-top.md <-- /page-top
Note
_index.md
is required in each folder, it’s your “folder home page”
Create your project
The following steps are here to help you initialize your new website. If you don’t know Hugo at all, we strongly suggest you to train by following great documentation for beginners.
Hugo provides a new
command to create a new website.

The Relearn theme provides archetypes to help you create this kind of pages.
