Personal website built with Hugo and Anatole theme.

How it works

These are mostly notes to my future self.

Writing Flow 🌊

The site builds and deploys automatically through GitHub Actions. To add new content:

  • Add posts to content/articles/
    • defaulting to images in static/images/ these days, and fixing old pathways with layouts/_default/_markup/render-image.html
    • or add pages to content/ as a new folder and index.md file to use Hugo Page Bundles and store images with posts
  • Adding to content/garden adds to my digital garden 🌱
    • Garden design is controlled by the taxonomy and layouts/garden/list.html
  • Update about me in content/_index.md
    • Social links are in config/params.toml
    • Create a link to the new page in config/menus.toml

Publishing with Personal Section

To publish a note, add this frontmatter:

share: true
type: curiosity  # controls destination folder: content/<type>/
  • share: true — tells Enveloppe to publish the file
  • type — maps to the folder in this repo (e.g. curiositycontent/curiosity/, default is content/articles/)
  • filename: my-slug — optional, controls the filename/URL in the repo

Preferred Tags 🏷️

Keep tags to this curated set — pick the closest fit rather than introducing a new one:

Tag Use for
product-thinking Product strategy, frameworks, cognitive models, ops
team-topologies Team design, boundaries, interaction modes, platform topologies
platform-product Platform-as-product, internal products, compatibility
career Career reflections, leadership journey, role transitions
inspirations Notes sparked by books, talks, or other people's work
thoughts Personal essays and reflections that don't fit a topic tag
ai-learning Working with AI tools, prompting, agent workflows
devops DevOps, infra, deployment, tooling notes
productivity PKM, Obsidian, personal workflow and tooling tips

Other Notes 📦

  • Theme updates: git submodule update --remote --merge themes/anatole
  • GitHub Actions is under .workflows/
    • I used to build through Netlify but Actions is working well now

How I write 📝

I use Obsidian for my notes and Enveloppe plugin to publish to this site.
