shom, I decided to try out the Gum (single Go binary) by @charmcli to make adding photos easier to my Hugo static site. This is all done with pretty basic bash scripting (the only kind I'm capable of)! It was impressively easy it was to use and while I don't like additional dependencies, this one is worth it.
I definitely will be making a lot more use of Gum (a whole Hugo interface)! Shout out to my #BelieveInFilm and #Hugo friend @bill for the nice photo layout.
