This blog is set up for continuous deployment from my private Git repository on
GitLab. I use Magit
to commit and push changes.
Files are generated by hugo
with the help of Netlify.
Netlify gives me the benefit of a static site without any of the hassle. DNS, storage, HTTPS, super fast hosting - it all works out of the box.
To me it’s more important to write articles than figuring out how to configure Amazon S3 and Route 53 (which was my old setup). I encourage you to do the same. It gives a glimpse into the future of software deployment too.
The source of this blog is one org-mode file that is run through ox-hugo
to
create markdown files.
I write with Emacs (Spacemacs with evil mode).
Emacs and Org-mode has taken over everything. It’s hard to think of anything that could be better suited to my needs.
With Vim, there was always something slightly annoying. With org-mode and Emacs, there is amazement hiding behind every corner. I highly recommend it.
