Hugo

There is considerable debate about the relative worth of enabling blog comments versus relying on social media channels, such as LinkedIn.

The Airspace blog template includes an image at the top of the blog. I like to make use of Creative Commons images but these usually require an attribution.

Initially Netlify was configured to build off the main branch, and I also made edits directly to the main branch on my local Git.

Once I had some sample content in place, the next step was to deploy the site to Netlify. It is possible to set up continuous deployment, which means that Netlify monitors a designated Git repository for changes to a specified build (typically main) and automatically runs a build whenever changes are detected.

Although I liked the appearance of the Airspace theme, it was clear that I would need to make some changes to, minimally, specify the text and background colours, and to provide styling for AsciiDoc-related markup.

The basic setup of Hugo on your local computer is easy, and well documented: Go to the folder in which you want to create the Hugo site structure.
