It think I’ve started a website om my domain with Wordpress. Used a default theme, had some icons where to find me on Socials and a message that I’m wokring on the contents and how to shape my website. Then other projects came around and I was just happy I could use my own domain for emailing.
A couple of years ago I discovered notetaking in Obsidian, amazed by the easy principles of markdown, watched some videos on how to setup a vault, do some notetaking, and then a video ‘building a second brain’ came by. Read the book, did some more video watching and then dicovered HUGO Static Site Generator…
And here I am. Some experimenting with diffrent Hugo Themes, played around with posts and decided to finally make something out of my own website. Insiperd by the principle of sharing your knowledge in ‘Building a Second brain’, Here I am Creating my website and documenting some steps in this article.
