Hugo as a tool for making a blog

This is my first test with Hugo. So far the response time is incredibly fast and the documentation is really easy to follow along. I am pleasantly surprised that it uses MarkDown files to post pages. This means I can make a vault and edit my posts in Obsidian, which I have grown quite fund of as a note/idea tool.

Issues

I had some trouble getting it to work as a route mathiasegekvist/blog but I am unsure if that is the way hugo is made or the way Digital Ocean tries to deploy it. I tried a bunch of stuff but it kept making the links for styling and assets wrong. I ended up making it as another deployment in Digital Ocean and then routing to blog.mathiasegekvist.dk instead. That worked perfectly out of the box.
