GRAV to Hugo Migration
#

I know it has been quite awhile since I have posted anything here on my website but I am hoping to change that. When I decided on diving back in I was not happy with the performance of my page loads even from my local network. This was the main driver for this migration.

Some of the key factors in switching were:

  • portability
  • performance
  • automation

With hugo all I needs is hugo and go installed on any computer that has access to my webserver. Right now I am writing this post from my macOS system using VSCode. I have added a couple of simple tasks to VSCode to ease the creation of a new post and to deploy updates to my web server.

Theme Changed

After some poking around I decided to see if I can put a new face to the site with a new theme. What you are looking at so far is what I found most pleasing to my eye. Side benefit to this one is that it also shows my @kf5jra twitter feed. If you find anything broken please let me know.

New Look

If this is your first time here this is will not look to new to you, but for returning visitors this might look a little different. Both the front end and the back end of this site has been changed. The move removes any dependencies on having to use an external program to make these posts and allows me to just use my editor of choice. The moves also removes the dependency of having to use a MySQL for the back end.

Still Here. . . .

I am still here and am highly aware that I have not posted anything to my site in quite sometime since I moved it here. It has been a very busy year and I don’t see my personal or professional life slowing in the near future.
