Emet’s job is to read and write the files in your Hugo repository without you having to think about them as files. This section covers the day-to-day of that: the content entries themselves, the operations you can run over many of them at once, and the other things that live alongside your content (data files, archetypes and images).
- Entries is the main one: the list, creating, editing, saving and deleting.
- Bulk actions covers renaming, moving, publishing and deleting a selection of entries in one commit.
- Data files is the editor for the YAML, JSON and TOML under
data/. - Archetypes explains how Hugo’s content templates are used when you create an entry, and how to edit them.
- Media library is where images are browsed, uploaded and picked.
- Sync explains what gets committed when on a GitHub-hosted site, and what the indicator in the header means.
- Publication is the optional working-branch-to-production workflow.
If you just want to write, Entries is all you need. The rest is for the days you’re maintaining the site rather than writing for it.
