My first post with hugo

Dumped blogger

I set up a site on blogger (Google’s blogspot) and dumped it for a Hugo design that caught my eye. I thought I could learn some css building it myself. Feel good from doing it myself from scratch. But boy is CSS boring! And I only realized this after 4 hours of centering divs and hunting for unclosed tags.

Now the day had almost come to an end and I was feeling guilty for the waste that it’d been. So to alleviate the guilt , I decided to setup Hugo. I mean why didn’t I do this in the first place? Anyways. After some googling I got it running and hence this site. It looks nice doesn’t it? I mean, I still have to remove some stock pages but I needed some lorem ipsum available before I add content of my own.

So I have tried to build a static site generator myself before. It’s why I didn’t want to pick up Hugo. But I guess everything has its time. I’ll return to that project someday. Plus, with Hugo running my site, I get to read about the language that’s quietly becoming famous as of when am writing this; THE GO LANGUAGE.

Anyways, I hope I’ll stay here for a while. Writing whatever I will be writing to whoever will be reading. You for instance. See you in the next one. Have fun looking around.
