I’m new to development and part of one of the projects I’m working on has me signing up for deploying my git. I’m using the hugo-academic template I found on git.
Page Not Found Looks like you’ve followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn’t exist on this site.” once I’ve clicked on the link provided by netlify. I’ve tried everything and it didn’t work…

@legey Welcome to the Netlify community.

Have you consulted this information yet?

#3

Thanks Gregraven.

Yes I consulted and it didn’t work…

#4

howdy, can you show us a screenshot of your build settings please?

#5

@legey I was going to suggest downloading a copy of your deploy to make certain that each of your files is where you (and Netlify) expect it to be.

@legey Make sure to have any ad blockers or tracking plugins turned off for app.netlify.com

Yes, I had already tested this

hi legey, looking at your package.json, i think you have quite a few things (dependencies and also commands) missing that are needed to build your project.

I only see this in your package.json:

  "devDependencies": {},
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },

which isn’t really enough. What commands are you running to build this app locally?

see this thread i responded to in depth today that contains a lot more info:

and this might be helpful too:
