Hugo is a good tool to make static sites. Yet, it is not beginner friendly and some of the moderators are very rude. After a frustrating 80 hours trying to move from Jekyll, I have given up on Hugo! Their philosophy is "either you learn Go or move on to something else". My satisfaction with Hugo is 0.3 out of 5. |

While Hugo documentation is not great, it does exist and given that this is open source, I assume you or I could improve it.
I have asked issues both on their forum as well as on git and while terse the main personalities have never been rude or condescending.
You certainly don't need to know Go to use Hugo (thou knowing Go templates and it's dsl will help).
If it helps you, I use a Go templates VSC plugin when editing Hugo templates.
I would love to know more about where you are having issues.
