Hugo

Launched an updated version of the website. The previous version was version 5 which used custom HTML along with Hugo Go generated HTML. The transition to Version 5 happened in 2018.

Version 6

I’ve recently been encourgaed to go back to blogging and felt it was time to move to pure Hugo. Hence, the birth of version 6. Version 6 is purely Hugo Go generated and used the BeautifulHugo theme.

Previous posts were also migrated over from version 5 of the blogs section which were initially deployed using Google Blogger. Version 6 is a huge jump from the last post about 5-years ago.

I’d been using blogger for a while now, but found that the last couple of years had not bothered making and publishing notes to my blog as I normally did. Blogger also has has some weird formatting issues (because I cannot HTML). So I decided to migrate to a static blog. Before proceeding I decided to document a number fo requirements I would like addressed.

Requirements

• Migrate to static web pages instead of CMS
• Easily update blog with short posts (to force myself to post regularly).
• Easily migrate from blogger.
• No database back end
• Supports github or similar markdown
• Supports themes/templates/CSS
