Installing Hugo and publishing Hugo web-pages on OpenBSD server

bsdboy

Hello all,

I just wanted to share my new blog site and also the content I have written is about the installation of Hugo - a static site generator and then publishing the same Hugo generated website on the OpenBSD server.

I had a hard time to understand the existing deployment tutorial blogs. They are using git or git-hooks script.
So, I thought to create a blog where I can explain the things very easily.

I have tried to explain it in an easy way.

Feel free to suggest improvements.

Thank you all.

Hmmm… I got a 404 Error when I clicked on the link.

That worked. Pretty cool. I am using Pelican for my static site generator.

Thanks, @jaypatelani. Actually, I changed my whole blog structure after posting the blog post link here, that is why it is showing 404 for that link.

Pelican is also nice, but I moved from Hugo to writing blog-site from scratch with the minimal and non-fancy way to increase the load time of the website. In Hugo, there was lots of unwanted JavaScript and web-fonts that makes it slow to process and load. So, then I decided to write minimal CSS file and HTML files, following KISS strategy.

Totally agree, and that's why I switched to Hugo as well!

JuvenalUrbino maybe we should find customers who wants to build their website we make it using community effort and donate all earned money to NetBSD foundation 😃 we can even use NetBSD vps for that https://tornadovps.com/

Jay it's already increasingly hard to find anybody willing to build a website for themselves, their company or their project. The majority of new web content promoting or presenting anything is now hosted on Instagram/Facebook, or blogging platforms and web hosting cloud providers which completely cut down the interaction between the user and the underlying infrastructure (OS, web server, database, etc..). Among those who do want to run a website and not rely on a ready to deploy solution or a paid web developers, those likely to opt for BSD + httpd + < name a static site generator > are probably an abysmal and negligible minority (who can perfectly find the info they need without any ado).
