Hugo + Sveltia CMS Skill

Two primary workflows:

1. Bootstrap: New Hugo site with Sveltia CMS + Basecoat UI, deployed to Cloudflare Pages
2. Convert: Migrate from TinaCMS, Decap/Netlify CMS, WordPress, Jekyll, Eleventy, or other platforms to Hugo + Sveltia CMS

Why This Stack

• Hugo — Fastest SSG, single binary, Go templates
• Sveltia CMS — Git-based headless CMS, drop-in Decap/Netlify CMS replacement with better UX and i18n. Beta, v1.0 early 2026. Same config.yml format as Decap
• Basecoat — shadcn/ui components without React. Tailwind CSS utility classes (btn, card, input), minimal JS, dark mode, themeable
• Cloudflare Pages — Primary deploy target. Free tier, fast CDN, Workers for OAuth
• GitHub — Only supported Git backend
