+[![Netlify Status](https://api.netlify.com/api/v1/badges/e0dbbfc7-34f1-4393-a679-c16e80162705/deploy-status)](https://app.netlify.com/sites/gohugoio/deploys)
+[![PRs Welcome](https://img.shields.io/badge/PRs-welcome-brightgreen.svg?style=flat-square)](https://gohugo.io/contribute/documentation/)
+
+# Hugo Docs
+
+Documentation site for [Hugo](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo), the very fast and flexible static site generator built with love in Go.
+
+## Contributing
+
+We welcome contributions to Hugo of any kind including documentation, suggestions, bug reports, pull requests etc. Also check out our [contribution guide](https://gohugo.io/contribute/documentation/). We would love to hear from you.
+
+Note that this repository contains solely the documentation for Hugo. For contributions that aren't documentation-related please refer to the [hugo](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo) repository.
+
+*Pull requests shall **only** contain changes to the actual documentation. However, changes on the codebase of Hugo **and** the documentation shall be a single, atomic pull request in the [hugo](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo) repository.*
+
+Spelling fixes are most welcomed, and if you want to contribute longer sections to the documentation, it would be great if you had the following criteria in mind when writing:
+
+* Short is good. People go to the library to read novels. If there is more than one way to _do a thing_ in Hugo, describe the current _best practice_ (avoid "… but you can also do …" and "… in older versions of Hugo you had to …".
+* For example, try to find short snippets that teaches people about the concept. If the example is also useful as-is (copy and paste), then great. Don't list long and similar examples just so people can use them on their sites.
+* Hugo has users from all over the world, so easy to understand and [simple English](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_English) is good.
+
+## Edit the theme
+
+If you want to do docs-related theme changes, the simplest way is to have both `hugoDocs` and `gohugoioTheme` cloned as sibling directories, and then run:
+
+```sh
+HUGO_MODULE_WORKSPACE=hugo.work hugo server --ignoreVendorPaths "**"
+```
+
+## Branches
+
+* The `master` branch is where the site is automatically built from, and is the place to put changes relevant to the current Hugo version.
+* The `next` branch is where we store changes that are related to the next Hugo release. This can be previewed here: https://next--gohugoio.netlify.com/
+
+## Build
+
+To view the documentation site locally, you need to clone this repository:
+
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs.git
+```
+
+Also note that the documentation version for a given version of Hugo can also be found in the `/docs` sub-folder of the [Hugo source repository](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo).
+
+Then to view the docs in your browser, run Hugo and open up the link:
+
+```sh
+▶ hugo server
+
+Started building sites ...
+.
+.
+Serving pages from memory
+Web Server is available at http://localhost:1313/ (bind address 127.0.0.1)
+Press Ctrl+C to stop
