Preview Changes

If you'd like to preview what your Quartz site looks like before deploying it to the internet, here's exactly how to do that!

Install hugo-obsidian

This step will generate the list of backlinks for Hugo to parse. Ensure you have Go (>= 1.16) installed.

# Install and link `hugo-obsidian` locally
$ go install github.com/jackyzha0/hugo-obsidian

# Navigate to your local Quartz folder
$ cd <location-of-your-local-quartz>

# Scrape all links in your Quartz folder and generate info for Quartz
$ hugo-obsidian -input=content -output=data -index=true

Afterwards, start the Hugo server as shown above and your local backlinks and interactive graph should be populated!

Installing Hugo

Hugo is the static site generator that powers Quartz. If you'd like to preview your site locally, install Hugo.

# Navigate to your local Quartz folder
$ cd <location-of-your-local-quartz>

# Start local server
$ hugo server

# View your site in a browser at http://localhost:1313/
