Some bug fixes in the (most likely) last Hugo release of the year. Of some technical interest to some, I can mention that I, @bep, have reworked hugoreleaser to use YAML (with anchors/aliases) instead of TOML for the release configuration. Have a look at the end result.

The big new feature in this release is js.Batch – this enables JavaScript bundle groups (e.g. scripts per section) with global code splitting and flexible hooks/runners setup.

This release is mostly about removing code that has been deprecated for a long time. This has been shown as an ERROR in the build log and failed the build for at least the last 6 minor Hugo versions, in most cases much longer.

But this is also a full dependency refresh, and there are also some new stuff. For one, we added a -O flag to hugo server to open up the site in your browser after start. This is now my (@bep) shortcut to start the server:

function h() {
  hugo server  -F -O -N -D
}
