You need to have the latest/LTS node and npm versions installed in order to use Victor Hugo.

Next step, clone this repository and run:

npm install

This will take some time and will install all packages necessary to run Victor Hugo and its tasks.

While developing your website, use:

npm start

or

gulp server

Then visit http://localhost:3000/- or a new browser windows popped-up already - to preview your new website. BrowserSync will automatically reload the CSS or refresh the whole page, when stylesheets or content changes.

To build a static version of the website inside the /dist folder, run:

npm run build

To get a preview of posts or articles not yet published, run:

npm run build-preview

See package.json or the included gulp file for all tasks.
