Hugo uses the `hugo.toml`, `hugo.yaml`, or `hugo.json` (if found in the

|
|
|
|
site root) as the default site configuration file.

## hugo.toml vs config.toml

In Hugo 0.110.0 we changed the default config base filename to `hugo`, e.g. `hugo.toml`. We will still look for `config.toml` etc., but we recommend you eventually rename it (but you need to wait if you want to support older Hugo versions). The main reason we're doing this is to make it easier for code editors and build tools to identify this as a Hugo configuration file and project.

This is how you need to configure your `hugo.toml` files considering the above scenario:
|
|
|
|
|
1. In `_default/hugo.toml` you don't need to mention `googleAnalytics` parameter at all. This ensures that no Google Analytics code is loaded in your development server i.e. when you run `hugo server`. This works since, by default Hugo sets `Environment=development` when you run `hugo server` which uses the config files from `_default` folder

You don't need to mention all other parameters like `title`, `baseURL`, `theme` etc. again in this config file. You need to mention only those parameters which are different or new for the production environment. This is due to the fact that Hugo is going to __merge__ this on top of `_default/hugo.toml`. Now when you run `hugo` (build command), by default hugo sets `Environment=production`, so the `G-PPPPPPPP` analytics code will be there in your production website

writeStats
|
|
|
|
|
: When enabled, a file named `hugo_stats.json` will be written to your project root with some aggregated data about the build, e.g. list of HTML entities published to be used to do [CSS pruning](/hugo-pipes/postprocess/#css-purging-with-postcss). If you're only using this for the production build, you should consider placing it below [config/production](/getting-started/configuration/#configuration-directory). It's also worth mentioning that, due to the nature of the partial server builds, new HTML entities will be added when you add or change them while the server is running, but the old values will not be removed until you restart the server or run a regular `hugo` build.
|
|
|
|
|
Exclude `class` attributes, `id` attributes, or tags from `hugo_stats.json` with the `disableClasses`, `disableIDs`, and `disableTags` keys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note** that the prime use case for this is purging of unused CSS; it is built for speed and there may be false positives (e.g., detection of HTML elements that are not HTML elements).

noJSConfigInAssets
|
|
|
|
|
: Turn off writing a `jsconfig.json` into your `/assets` folder with mapping of imports from running [js.Build](https://gohugo.io/hugo-pipes/js). This file is intended to help with intellisense/navigation inside code editors such as [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/). Note that if you do not use `js.Build`, no file will be written.

|
