> ⚠️ If you installed a [Hugo binary](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/installing/#binary-cross-platform), you may not have Go installed on your machine. To check if Go is installed:
> ```
> $ go version
> ```
> Go modules were considered production ready in v1.14. [Download Go](https://golang.org/dl/).
1. From your project's root directory, initiate the hugo module system if you haven't already:
```
$ hugo mod init github.com/<your_user>/<your_project>
For more information read the official [setup guide](//gohugo.io/overview/installing/) of Hugo.
## Getting started
After installing the theme successfully it requires a just a few more steps to get your site running.
### The config file
Take a look inside the [`exampleSite`](https://github.com/nodejh/gohugo-theme-mini/tree/master/exampleSite) folder of this theme. You'll find a file called [`config.yaml`](https://github.com/nodejh/gohugo-theme-mini/blob/master/exampleSite/config.yaml). To use it, copy the [`config.yaml`](https://github.com/nodejh/gohugo-theme-mini/blob/master/exampleSite/config.yaml) in the root folder of your Hugo site. Feel free to change the strings in this theme.
You may need to delete the line: `themesDir: ../../`
### Logo and favicon
You can replace the log in the top of each page and favicon with your own images. To do that replace `static/images/avatar.png` and `static/images/favicon.ico` .
### Nearly finished
In order to see your site in action, run Hugo's built-in local server.
```sh
$ hugo server
```
Now enter localhost:1313 in the address bar of your browser.
