Drentin's Findings

Personal blog built with Hugo and the PaperMod theme, hosted on AWS Amplify at https://dev.drentin.au.

Setup

The theme is a git submodule, so fetch it on first checkout:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Then run the dev server:

hugo server

Don't run git submodule update --remote — it moves the theme off the commit this site is pinned to and tested against. See CLAUDE.md for the deliberate theme-update procedure.

Building

hugo --gc --minify

Output goes to public/, which is not committed. Deployment details, Amplify configuration and theme customisation notes are in CLAUDE.md.
