<p>In <strong>Hugo</strong>, pages are the core of your site.</p>
<p>The theme generates the navigation menu out of the given directory structure.</p>
<p>Organize your site like <a href="https://gohugo.io/content/structure/" rel="external" target="_self">any other Hugo project</a>. Typically, you will have a <em>content</em> directory with all your pages.</p>
