Website is the Hugo framework repository behind the Intelops corporate site, built to manage multi-section content like Blog, Docs, Learning Center, and Open-Source pages from Markdown files.
What is Website?
Website is a static site project powered by Hugo, maintained on GitHub at github.com/intelops/website. It takes Markdown content, a theme configuration, and shortcodes as input and generates the production website as output. The repository is managed under the Intelops GitHub organization and currently has 5 stars, with topics including hugo, hugo-site, hugo-theme, and website.
