How to build a blog with Hugo

This blog hadn’t a redesign for a decade. It was driven by self-made CMS, which naturally has become, say the least of it, outdated. So some time ago I ripened for a remastering. Instantly I started by looking for a CMS or a headless CMS. Then I realized, the blog is actually static – I don’t have here any forms or services, it’s all about representation of content. Why not to go with a site generator?
