Introduction

Hugy is a desktop (Electron) app aimed at content editors onboarding projects using the Hugo static site genertor. Static sites are great and Hugo is a great static site generator but due to its specifity (a command line tool) it may be hard to ask copywriters to use it in projects.

Hugy assumes that your workflow is git-centered as it will allow the content editor to push changes to a git repo.
