I’ve done this many times. But this time I mean it. Really!
Over the years I’ve tried blogging on many platforms. Early on I even built my own scripts to convert text into HTML which I pushed to an apache server. I’ve tried Apache Roller and Blogger, and about nine years ago I dipped my toes into IndieWeb, setting up a WithKnown site.
Most recently I’ve been posting internally at work using GitLab and Jekyll, This is that, but made public.
I going with Hugo this time, but still using GitLab pages to host this site. Longer term I would like to include some IndieWeb elements, but let’s see how far we get.
To start, I’ve documented the process of setting up the site in a short series of posts.
