`countwords` tries to convert the passed content to a string and counts each word in it. The template function works similar to the [.WordCount page variable][pagevars].
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
{{ "Hugo is a static site generator." | countwords }}
|
|
<!-- outputs a content length of 6 words. -->
|
|
```
