Blog with Hugo (and GitHub Pages)

Hugo is one of the most popular open-source static site generators. With its amazing speed and flexibility, Hugo makes building websites fun again. That's in the Hugo website and I guess it's true, since I find it very easy to use to publish this dumb blog when I have the time to.

As I told in previous posts, I started using orgmode at work, but not for my everyday personal tasks… and suddenly I came across with Orgzly.

Doom, Emacs & Windows

Doom-emacs. It's a configuration framework for Emacs. Basically, it overrides the Emacs keybindings with most of vim's. As I mentioned in the last post.
