Hello Hugo!

Saying hello from the new Hugo-powered site…

After a little bit of downtime, my personal site is back up. I’ve transitioned away from Wordpress, which was slow, insecure, and more expensive to host, to Hugo, a markdown-based static site generator. Writing content and updating the site is as easy as making a new markdown file and running a git push.

The theme for the site is based off of the Academic theme (now called HugoBlox) by George Cushen, with a number of stylistic tweaks. He has a great post here explaining the benefits of using Hugo to build a website that I highly recommend checking out.

In the early days, static sites were the only option, and now they seem to be back en vogue, so enjoy!
