Hugo and ox-hugo

Here’s the customary how I made this site using X post.

This site is built using Hugo and ox-hugo.

The source is written in Org mode, which is converted to markdown by ox-hugo. To get started yourself, check out the initial commit of the source repository and build from there.

Some notes:

  • I’m using the Hugo-coder theme.
  • Since the conversion from Org to markdown is done using an Emacs plugin, the emacs folder contains a simple init.el to import ox-hugo and a function to export all *.org files in the repository apart from those inside the emacs folder itself.
  • The makefile contains the build-content rule to call the conversion, and build-site to invoke Hugo. Just running make will do both of these and serve the site locally.
