I moved this blog to Hugo a while ago, which is a static site generator built on golang. Recently, I had to update the server hosting my site, but it was too far behind on updates to run an upgrade to the latest version, so I backed up my site and powered it off and created a new server. Unfortunately, my backup only had the nginx config which pointed to a container running my blog. I did have a backup of the repository which had the site content and theme, but I struggled getting it to build, but resolved it. I modified the appearance “I was using bootstrap”, and got it running locally. But I decided to switch to Tailwind CSS as it seems to be the new cool thing in web development. This also simplified my build process, as I no longer had to install bootstrapcss and gulp in my theme and run the gulpfile during development and during a deploy, it was all handled now by hugo.
