Timer Hugo

Timer Hugo is a free portfolio and landing page theme built on the Hugo static site generator, designed for creative companies, agencies, and freelancers to showcase their projects, services, and products.

What is Timer Hugo?

Timer Hugo is a Hugo-based portfolio and landing page theme created by Themefisher and Gethugothemes. It takes standard Hugo site content (markdown files for pages and posts) and renders a multi-page website with 8+ pre-designed page layouts. The theme supports Hugo version 0.60.0 and above, and the code is released under the MIT license, while images in the demo are for display only and retain their own licenses.

Key Features

• Google Analytics support — Configure Google Analytics directly in the theme settings to track site traffic.
• Contact form support — A built-in contact page layout that lets visitors send messages.
• Google Maps integration — Embed a Google Map on the contact or other pages using theme parameters.
