I'm working on a new #hugo theme and while developing, I'm seeing this odd thing where changes to layouts/index.html is not triggering rebuild, so developing is hard.
anyone seen something like this before? layouts-wise I only have _defalt/[baseof, single, list, terms].html defined other than partials
I'm in a quandary. I had planned to use static sites for any future blogging activity - #Hugo, #Jekyll, or somesuch. Ditch #WordPress, reduce my attack surface.
However, WordPress now has the #ActivityPub plugin. This is appealing.
So, I'm looking for opinions and suggestions. Is the ActivityPub plugin worth sticking with WordPress? Are there alternatives?
I can't see how there could be a static website solution that would have #fediverse integration.
I've managed to read all of the novels and all of the mentioned series.
Winners for the #Hugo Awards, the Astounding Award for Best New Writer, and the Lodestar Award for Best Young Adult Book were announced by Chengdu Worldcon, the 81st World Science Fiction Convention on October 21, 2023 in Chengdu, China.
So I am about to release v2.1.0 of #Fedipage (A Hugo based Static Page Generator that has ActivityPub/Fediverse support).
I am running the latest version on my personal page. Could anyone who has a moment check it out and see if you see any CSS glitches? Any feedback welcome. I will release later today.
Looks good here - personally I find the quote font too light for my eyes to read comfortably. FWIW

It mostly looks like the old version but the home page is revamped (I really like the real time git heatmap I created! ) and it is totally built from scratch. Some features I love:
It even supports the Fediverse as a full activity pub end point. It uses the following handle:
One thing I dont like however is right now it locks you into Vercel as your deployment. However our dependence on it is rather minimal as we use it only to cover the serverless functions needed as well as some simple routing.
My fear is many may not be able to afford vercel or may not like them as an option. Does anyone know of a cheaper more FLOSS/privavcy oriented option that makes it easy to deploy typescript/java based serverless functions?
If I can find a good alternative I'd love to adapt the project to support Vercel alternatives.
Day 2 of rebuilding my website from #hugo to #wordpress. Yup still hate php. Old hat #php devs what was it like building these tools like wordpress? Why did you put up with this terrible language?
So its done! I finally released a fairly easy to install (from scratch) Hugo based Static Site generator with full ActivityPub support.
It has step-by-step instructions on how to set it up for your own blog or static website.
One of the coolest features for me, other than having your static site blog posts show up as posts in the Fediverse is the support for interacting with those posts. Any replies you leave, likes, or boosts will show up in the "comments" section of the website on the page associated with the post. How cool is that!
