Creating Labarum (Part 1): Design and initialization mandarismoore.com

@mandaris Oh this looks good. I like how you're considering the whole process, not just assuming the reader knows a bunch of developer things from the start.

@SimonWoods Thank you for the feed back! I wasn't sure where to begin with this series. @manton already had a video and I just wanted to go a little more into hugo and my own design decisions. I've got part 2 & 3 drafted but I wanted some eyes on it before I continue. I don't want to get to 4 and feel I need to re-write everything.

@mandaris This is great! I've bookmarked it for when I get round to creating my own theme.

@mandaris this is fun! Pretty similar to my own process for building my theme.

@mandaris This looks great, thanks for sharing your experience working through it!

@jsonbecker and just like that, I made a new friend who I will ~~steal ideas~~ be inspired from.

@manton I really appreciate that coming from you. I was a little afraid to look into the Manton Magic you got going on here.

@mandaris nice! Thanks for documenting your process so thoroughly. Great reference material for later

@mandaris there’s a lot I’ve done not on GitHub so let me know if there’s anything I can share that will help. I similarly theme-blanked (admittedly I’ve written many Hugo themes over the years)

@jsonbecker I’ll have to follow up you after I’m done writing up this series. I’ve paused my development because I know I will continue to tinker with it.

!! Just remembered that I can tag the current release in GitHub.

@mandaris Thank you for taking the time to write and share this. While I doubt that I'll create a theme, I apperciate learning more about what is behind the process, and maybe then I'll feel more inclinded to tinker with websites.
