Hugo conference

Hugo conference is a theme for conferences/events based on the original conf-boilerplate theme by BrazilJS Foundation and his many contributors.

Building my conference site from scratch

1. Install Hugo

2. Create a new site by running:

    hugo new site my-conf
    cd my-conf
    git clone https://github.com/jweslley/hugo-conference themes/hugo-conference
    rm -f config.toml
    cp themes/hugo-conference/exampleSite/config.yml .
   

3. It's done. Just start Hugo server to see it live!

    hugo server --watch
   

Customizing the site

All the site information can be found in the config.yml file. Just edit it to make changes. By default, the site have the following sections:

• About - to describe what's the main goal of your event.
• Location - to show where it's going to happen through Google Maps.
• Speakers - to list information about speakers.
• Schedule - to show the agenda.
• Sponsors - to show the brand of your sponsors.
• Partners - to show the brand of your partners.

Ps: It's important to change the baseurl property from config.yml file in order to reflect your settings.

Google Maps

Google now requires a Google Maps JavaScript API Key to show maps. You can obtain your key here. Then set your API key in the GoogleMapsKey param in the config.yml file.
