Hugo support for Doom Emacs

Tue, 14 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Couldn’t find a working setup guide quickly, so decided to note this down.

ox-hugo is an org exporter for Hugo. Here’s how to setup and export a subtree using Doom Emacs 2.1.0.

Enabling ox-hugo for doom emacs

Seems like doom’s init.el once supported ox-hugo with lang:(org +hugo), but that doesn’t seem to the case anymore.

Doom creates the following files. I enabled ox-hugo with these additions.

;; packages.el
(package! ox-hugo)

;; config.el
(after! ox
  (require 'ox-hugo))

Then ran doom sync to finish setup.
