Static personal website using Hugo and the Blowfish theme. Deployed via GitHub pages to my custom domain https://niklastypes.xyz.

Requirements

To run the web server:

brew install hugo

Setup

As this project is using Blowfish as a git submodule, run the following once:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Then, start up the web server locally via

hugo server

and view on http://localhost:1313/.

#5e6fa3 -> #6d40d9
