Lachesis In my last post I created a pull request to make sure a parameter was parsed properly in the gohugo-theme-ananke theme. Since it’s been almost two weeks since I submitted the PR, I decided to fork the MIT licensed theme into my own and attempt to take responsibility for maintaining and extending this theme. So this is how Ananke was forked and became Lachesis. Summary I forked an MIT licensed hugo theme and renamed it to Lachesis, set the master branch up to trigger an automatic deployment on netlify.

Managing content with Hugo I’ve periodically kept and maintained a blog over the years. I keep restarting whenever I enter a new life pattern. Recently I came back to a static site generator, Hugo, which is written in Go and has 30k+ stars on Github. Summary Hugo has excellent documentation on installation, getting started and usage. I’m surprised it doesn’t have a section that covers installation on Linux distributions. I personally use Ubuntu and Debian on the desktop for development, along with OSX and Windows.
