Your Turn

Before moving on, try the following things to make sure you understand how page creation and content generation works:

1. Change the draft status of the About page’s content back to true and regenerate the site with the hugo command, with no additional options. Notice that the about/index.html file still exists. Use the --cleanDestinationDir option and the about/index.html file will disappear. Set the draft status back to false again and rebuild the site to restore the file.

2. Create a “Résumé” page using hugo new resume.md. The generated title in the front matter will say “Resume”. Open the content/resume.md file in your editor, update the generated title from “Resume” to “Résumé”, and set the draft status to false. Fill in some content, and then run the development web server. Navigate to http://localhost:1313/resume to view the page. The single page content template you created applies to this page as well.

3. Experiment with the default archetype. Change the draft state to false in the default archetype and generate a fourth page called contact.md. This new page will now have the draft state set to false. All future pages you create with the hugo new command will now have this status set.
