Start as New Project

There are two main ways to add the Hextra theme to your Hugo project:

  1. Hugo Modules (Recommended): The simplest and recommended method. Hugo modules let you pull in the theme directly from its online source. Theme is downloaded automatically and managed by Hugo.

  2. Git Submodule: Alternatively, add Hextra as a Git Submodule. The theme is downloaded by Git and stored in your project’s themes folder.

Initialize a new Hugo site
