My original website is years old at this point and kind of a mess, so I decided to make a new one. This time around I decided to harness the power of a static site generator. After trying a couple out, I decided to go with Hugo. I want my personal site to be more of a personal blog and I think Hugo is extremely adept at handling that use case. For now I’m using a community theme called “Cactus” but going forward I’ll probably look into developing my own theme for my own use cases.
