We'll assume here that you have a good understanding of Hugo and its structure. If you have any doubt, check the [Hugo documentation](https://gohugo.io/documentation/ "Hugo documentation"); it is pretty good and the community quite active! Thank you so much by the way! :muscle:

The first thing to do when starting your own website is to **copy the content of exampleSite** in your own root folder. This way, you can have a sample of `config.toml` file and a first structure.
|
|
|
|
**Don't forget to change the `baseURL` param to avoid deployment failures**
|
|
|
|
Browse the articles in the `content/post` folder to get any help during setup or using the theme. Please, [contact me](https://baptistej.com "contact me") if you have any problem using the them.
|
|
|
|
Then **configure the `config.toml` file** to match your need.
|
|
|
|
You should then write you home (`/content/_index.md`), create your first project (see the [portfolio definition](/content/post/portfolio-definition.md "portfolio definition") and your first blogpost.
|
|
|
|
Lastly, define the menu in the sidebar: you can get some help in the `/content/post/manage-your-menu.md` file. |
