Where I ramble about hugo from my iPhone on Nov 1, 2020

Figured out how to be able to post to my blog from my phone for quick things. By using Working Copy, I can rather easily write up a quick post for Asides or whatever and get it published. It’s not the most user friendly overall but for a nerd like me it works fairly well. I thought about writing my posts somewhere else with a nicer client and then throwing a script together to pull that in and rebuild the site.

Where I ramble about site search on Mar 27, 2018

I was able to figure out getting search running on this site with Lunr (interesting because this is a static site). I’ll need to see if I can do a write-up of my setup at some point after I have a chance to clean up some of the JS a bit since I didn’t see any really clear walkthroughs on getting this fully working from start to finish.
