It doesn't look like Hugo supports scss, so you need to use gulp for that: http://danbahrami.io/articles/building-a-production-website-with-hugo-and-gulp-js/ http://danbahrami.io/articles/building-a-production-website-... You can run "gulp watch" to compile the files into /static, and Hugo's live reloading will pick up the changes. I can't find anything about slim templates. "Hugo uses Go’s html/template and text/template libraries as the basis for the templating.": https://gohugo.io/templates/introduction/ https://gohugo.io/templates/introduction/ It does support partials, and the go templates are similar to liquid. I honestly don't do much to customize Hugo, I just pick a theme, tweak the CSS, and write some blog posts. If you have a Jekyll blog with a lot of custom Ruby, then it might be difficult to switch.
