From the course: Learning Static Site Building with Hugo
Deploy your site with Netlify
- [Instructor] Now we're ready to deploy the site for the first time. I'll pick the repository I want to deploy. Normally, you'll want to deploy from the master branch, which is the default selection here. For Hugo projects the build command is Hugo and the default output folder is called public, so these defaults are fine as well. I can scroll down and simply click Deploy site. And that's it, after a few seconds, Netlify will finish building the site and give you a random preview URL you can click on to view it. In addition to building the master branch, Netlify can also be configured to create preview deployments of your site for other branches, so you can easily preview changes before they go live.
