NostraDavid's handcrafted website

This is my handcrafted Hugo-generated website. I post articles, bits of knowledge, projects and others. This is effectively my personal playground/dumping-ground that I care enough about to make public.

This site is basically 2 github repos: one to contain the sourcecode, with a submodule I can generate into, so I can push generated files to the second repo, which functions as host repo, using Github Pages or whatever it’s called.

If you want more details about this site, check out the About page.
