Quick Start: Deploy Liquid Stack

The shortest path from a copied theme to a published first page.

Author: Liquid Stack

Source: https://liquid-stack.pages.dev/p/quick-start-deploying-liquid-stack/

This guide shows how to use Liquid Stack as the starting point for your own site and publish a first version.

Copy the project

Use GitHub’s template flow or copy this repository. Then edit the title, subtitle, avatar path, and GitHub links in hugo.yaml. Do not edit public/ or resources/; Hugo regenerates them during a build.

Preview locally

Install Hugo Extended and run hugo server -D from the project root. Open the local address shown in the terminal. Markdown, configuration, and style changes refresh automatically.

Check before publishing

Run hugo --minify --cleanDestinationDir --ignoreCache. Confirm that the home page, posts, photo wall, launchpad, and admin page open correctly before pushing source files to your repository. The generated public/ directory can be published to Cloudflare Pages or another static host.

Next step

Replace the sample values in hugo.yaml, then write your first post. The launchpad, photo wall, links, and comment configuration are all kept for you to adapt.

The homepage widgets feel complete and are ready once the sample content is replaced.

Switching between English and Chinese is smooth, and the page structure stays consistent.

Comments, backlinks, and the CMS keep their complete entry points and work after connecting your own services.
