Intro

I’ve encountered a lot of skepticism around the idea of adding dynamic behavior to Hugo sites with hugo-htmx-go-template. That skepticism is well founded, because Hugo bills itself as a static site generator.

So why would anyone want to add dynamic functionality to Hugo sites when Hugo aspires to be a simple static site generator?
