Run server:

hugo server

And open http://localhost:1313/ in your browser.

You can also use:

hugo server -F -D --disableFastRender

where:

• -F: show items to be published in the future (like blog posts with dates in the future)
• -D: show drafts
• --disableFastRender: disable lazy-load on page request, generate all content right away

Generate static files to /tmp/blog-public, ready to be hosted with Nginx for example:

hugo --config="/home/user/blog/config.toml" -s /home/user/blog/ -d /tmp/blog-public
