Not going the hugo route

Deciding against hugo

I was going to see about jumping back into ox-hugo, for some reason.

I don't really know why. I've done that in the past and really didn't care for it.

While this particular version of my blog isn't pure emacs and org, it's pretty close. I like it.

I'd like it more if I could blog from android, though.

A not quite new start

Here we are once again

We are just sitting here, nearing the end of a long four day weekend.

I'm more or less alone in the home, the couple of kiddos that are here are hanging out upstairs; there are a couple of kiddos that are out, one is at a friends playing and the other is chilling downtown - eventually that one will bring the other back home.

What have I got going on? Not much. I've been attempting to do some work on this blog, living under a new domain name, which I picked up awhile ago in hopes to host some family-oriented stuff. Maybe email, maybe social stuff. I don't know. I'm slowly attempting to move away from all of the large big-tech stuff. Diversification and all that. I don't mind paying for services, I'd much rather use the product than be the product, you know?

A new site, you say?

Yeah, I'm thinking of changing up my workflow.

I like emacs and org mode, so I thought it might not be a bad thing to go all in a blog using those tools.

While it would be nice to go straight up pure emacs and org, I found org-static-blog and I really like it, so I'm using it. Built up a small self-contained config/script file that can run from the command line to build the site, then rsync it up to the static server hosted overseas.

Five, ten years ago I never would have thought that I'd go the static route, but here we are. It's quick, easy, simple.

Templates moved out of emacs config

No more html templates in the emacs config

I do my emacs config via literate programming in org-mode. The template snippets for portions of my static blog config were buried in that literate config file.

No more.

A simple slurp defun and creation of some new template files and we're good to - hopefully - be able to make changes to those files without touching my emacs config.

The Second Post

Now, just because

This is the second post, doesn't necessarily make it any less important than the first.

Okay? Okay.

The First Post

Just a header

This is the header area of the first post.

There is nothing here yet. IF there were anything here, it would be very important.
