Hugo provides humanize function to make a String with the first letter capitalized.

The title page variable was my blog, but it shows My blog on the page.

Page Variable

  • title : the m in my blog is lowercase

humanize

layouts/index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <script src="alpine.js" defer></script>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="output.css" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1 class="text-4xl font-bold">{{ humanize .Title }}</h1>
  </body>
</html>

Line 10

<h1 class="text-4xl font-bold">{{ humanize .Title }}</h1>
  • humanize : return the humanized version of an argument with the first letter capitalized

Conclusion

  • Although we can use JavaScript to capitalize the String on the run-time but humanize provided by Hugo is much faster on the build-time

Reference

Hugo, humanize
