This article offers a sample of basic Markdown syntax that can be used in Hugo content files, also it shows whether basic HTML elements are decorated with CSS in a Hugo theme.

Feel free to switch between the light and dark themes to see how the diagram adapts its colors accordingly.

To use an icon, simply copy its shortcode and paste it into your content where you want the icon to appear. The shortcode must be enclosed in {{< >}}.

        // If `visible` is specified, the content is not clipped and can render outside the container. If `hidden` is specified, the content is clipped and the rest of the content will be invisible. If `scroll` is specified, the browser should provide a scrolling mechanism for the user to access the clipped content.

There are examples of how to use custom global-wise style or page-wise style.

Hugo ships with several Built-in Shortcodes for rich content, along with a Privacy Config and a set of Simple Shortcodes that enable static and no-JS versions of various social media embeds.

Lorem est tota propiore conpellat pectoribus de pectora summo. Redit teque digerit hominumque toris verebor lumina non cervice subde tollit usus habet Arctonque, furores quas nec ferunt. Quoque montibus nunc caluere tempus inhospita parcite confusaque translucet patri vestro qui optatis lumine cognoscere flos nubis! Fronde ipsamque patulos Dryopen deorum.

Mathematical notation in a Hugo project can be enabled by using third party JavaScript libraries.

• To enable MathJax on a page basis include the parameter math: true in content files.

# Examples

Inline math: $$ \varphi = \dfrac{1+\sqrt5}{2}= 1.6180339887… $$

Block math:

$$ \varphi = 1+\frac{1} {1+\frac{1} {1+\frac{1} {1+\cdots} } } $$

Emoji can be enabled in a Hugo project in a number of ways.

The emojify function can be called directly in templates or Inline Shortcodes.

To enable emoji globally, set enableEmoji to true in your site’s configuration and then you can type emoji shorthand codes directly in content files; e.g.

🙈 :see_no_evil: 🙉 :hear_no_evil: 🙊 :speak_no_evil:

The Emoji cheat sheet is a useful reference for emoji shorthand codes.

N.B. The above steps enable Unicode Standard emoji characters and sequences in Hugo, however the rendering of these glyphs depends on the browser and the platform. To style the emoji you can either use a third party emoji font or a font stack; e.g.
