Hello everyone, I’m back with my blog :)
Now it is powered by Hugo. I’ve also updated the RSS, so it might’ve spammed you with older posts. Sorry for that.
What happend
I’d like to apologize for basically abandoning the blog. Lots of stuff has happend since. I’ve finished keyboard and blinds (I will cover it in the next posts). Went to a con and cosplayed for the first time. It was plenty of fun. Also got into 3D printing. And now as the year is coming to an end, I’ve decided to clean up all the messes in my life (in my room, in my head and the one in here).
Move to Hugo
This blog is now made with Hugo.
Why?
While Django was nice, the way I used to add new posts was very janky. Basically I’ve been adding them via textbox in admin panel. No previews, no anything. And then used python to convert markdown into html and inject it into the template. I’ve tried adding images this way and it failed. Also mannually adding the path to the image, checking if it looks right was very inconvenient.
While Hugo also converts markdown into html pages, it does so natively and formats stuff nicely. I prefer its simple file structure over Django’s database aproach.
What’s next
I guess this post counts both as this year’s summary and as New Year’s wish/resolution. I plan to post more often and to cover the projects I’ve made so far. As well as the new ones.
P.S. A little teaser for a big project I want to do next year
