The cni.dev website is generated from the CNCF projects documentation boilerplate.
This site uses the following:
- Hugo (extended, v0.73 or above) as a static site generator
- Bootstrap 4.5.x as a CSS framework
- Netlify for building, hosting, and DNS management
Make sure you have npm and yarn installed. Clone this repository and run the following two commands in its directory:
# Install npm assets (just Bulma for Sass/CSS)
yarn
# Run the server locally
make serve
Netlify is a CI/CD build tool and hosting solution for (among other things) static sites. We strongly recommend using Netlify unless you have a good reason not to.
This repository comes with a pre-configured netlify.toml
file. To build to Netlify:
- Go to netlify.com and sign up. We recommend signing up using a GitHub account.
- Click New Site from Git, and give Netlify access to your GitHub account.
Note: For projects with lots of contributors, it can be handy to create a general/bot account instead of granting access with a personal account.
- Install Netlify with access to your documentation site repository.
- Leave all other settings as default and click Deploy Site.
This repository has two layouts with minimal styling, all stored under /layouts/_default

directory - Some helpers in the
/assets/sass/helpers.sass
file
- The
- A docs template, a basic content page with submenu which uses the following:
- The
single.html
file and partials in the/partials/docs
directory - Classes in the
/assets/sass/helpers.sass
and/assets/sass/_docs.sass
files
- The
Both use default components and styling from the Bootstrap CSS framework. No menus are structured, because menu structure is highly dependent on the nature of the project.
