Welcome to Hugo (from Jekyll)

Welcome to my wholly reworked website! This time, I've dropped the complexity of Wordpress and opted for something significantly simpler: Jekyll Hugo and GitHub.

Having now hosted the site in GitHub Pages, here was the process I started with Hugo:

1. Created the Github Pages repo (rterakedis.github.io) -- this is where github pages looks for the blog's generated site files.
2. Created a 2nd Github repo: rterakedis.github.io.hugo -- this repo holds the source files for Hugo to parse and generate the site.
3. Added the GH Pages repo (rterakedis.github.io) as a submodule for rterakedis.github.io.hugo
4. Edited the config.toml in the hugo files to include the following:

• baseURL = "https://terakedis.dev/"
• publishdir = "rterakedis.github.io"

1. Add the CNAME file into the rterakedis.github.io repo and enable the custom name/https in the repo settings
2. Ensure the output from hugo builds into the rterakedis.github.io directory in my local rterakedis.github.io.hugo directory
3. Commit and push everything to GitHub
