The #1 Open Source Toolkit for Technical & Academic Websites
Accelerate Your Impact: Build blazing-fast, SEO-optimized sites in minutes.
Why Hugo Blox?
- Launch in Minutes, Not Months: Pick a template, customize with drag-and-drop blocks, and deploy. Build anything from SaaS landing pages and online courses to academic resumés and lab sites.
- Own Your Content & Brand: You get static files with no vendor lock-in, leading to 100/100 Lighthouse scores. Your content, your rules.
- Built for a Technical Workflow: A modern stack with Hugo and Tailwind CSS. Write in Markdown, Jupyter, or BibTeX. Auto-sync publications.
- Open & Extendable: Start with a generous MIT-licensed core. Upgrade with premium templates and blocks or extend with React "islands" for custom interactivity.
