github-orgmode-tests VS ox-hugo

- or to visualize and use it as a personal partner.

There's already a ton of open-source UIs such as Chatbot-ui[3] and Reor[4]. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Personally, I haven't been consistent enough through the years in note-taking.

So, I'm really curious to learn more about those of you who were and implemented such pipelines.

I'm sure there's a ton of really fascinating experiences.

literate config (using ORG mode)

Obligatory reference to Emacs Org-Mode [1].

Author's approach is basically Org-Mode with fewer helpers.

Org-mode's power is that, at core, it's just a text file, with gradual augmentation.

Then again, Org-Mode is a tool you must install, accessible through a limited list of clients (Emacs obviously, but also VSCode), and the power of OP's approach is that it requires no external tools.

This reminds me a lot of [Org Mode](https://orgmode.org/). Do you have plans to add other org-like features, like evaluating code blocks? I don't personally see myself moving away from org-mode, but it would be nice to have something to recommend to people who are reluctant to use emacs, even if it's only for a single application.

If you want to spare a couple of detours, you probably could start with Emacs Org-mode according to Greenspun's eleventh rule: "Any sufficiently complicated PIM or note-taking program contains an ad hoc, informally specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Org mode."

Wow, no one has recommended Org mode (https://orgmode.org). I started using Emacs nearly 20 years ago specifically because of Org. I use Org for all my static sites, note taking, to-do lists and calendar. Org has a lightweight markup language that has far more features than Markdown (e.g., plain text spreadsheets!), but the markup isn't visible to the extent that Markdown is in most editors. Emacs with Org files behaves almost like a WYSIWYG editor. For example, links in Org files are clickable and their URLs aren't visible unless a cursor is hovered over them. I'm an obsessive note-taker with more than 6,000 Org files in my personal knowledge base and none of the dozens of other note-taking apps that I've evaluated comes even close to Emacs with Org. But to be fair, I create content on Linux only so support for mobile devices doesn't matter to me.

By the way, I think it's hilarious that you mentioned Dreamweaver, dv35z, because I experimented with using Dreamweaver for note-taking in the 90s! I still have a few HTML files that include notes I took back then using Dreamweaver. Needless to say, I definitely prefer Emacs with Org!

Just another reason for one to get into org-mode[1] and org-roam[2].

Combine this with the concept of Zettelkasten[3] and you have a wonderful way to organize and store all your notes and writings, and even a way to know at what point you should move your idea from analog to digital (based on it's maturity, e.g. "evergreen state").

Long term: request here https://github.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo as a feature to make this customizable. Once implemented, you would be able to customize this value with `M-x customize-option`.

sure, it's a little personal but i just made the repo public, here you go:

- https://github.com/geekodour/diary/blob/main/content-org/wee...

- https://github.com/geekodour/diary/blob/main/layouts/partial...

Basically it's very badly written elisp code that populates the same org file with metadata like week number etc. and then I have a custom hugo layout for writing out the weeks into posts.

All of this is tied together by https://github.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo

Check out ox-hugo. You could maybe set up a capture template with the proper file options and use the one post per org file method.

I did find similar issues previously reported - https://discourse.doomemacs.org/t/org-encrypt-entries-before-save-hook-wont-let-me-save-my-org-file/3349 - https://github.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo/discussions/551

Appears to be related to this issue: https://github.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo/issues/630.

I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. I'm using ox-hugo to export my Org files to markdown so they can be rendered by Hugo, so that's what I'm using in terms of export. ox-hugo handles the citations fine but in my references section, no URL appears when I use the url field. I haven't configured anything, everything is on their defaults. (I'm on Doom Emacs, if that's relevant.) Thanks for the help!

Not if it's digital and you can search! I'm traditionally a no notes guy but I've been trying to build out an easily referenced knowledge base using Org-roam and Ox-hugo and it's been pretty great, especially if you're juggling multiple topics. It's probably overkill but the hope is that I'm future proofing a bit by making these things available in perpetuity, and the workflow for the whole thing is incredibly efficient thanks to the org mode in general and other Emacs plugins.

There is a number of options using third-party packages. For example, https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/

I like ox-hugo to write in Org Mode and export to Hugo. I host the repo on GitHub Pages to publish to the web without self-hosting or paying hosting fees, linked up to my custom domain. This is what the blog looks like, for reference. The URL https://ljwrites.github.io redirects to my domain if you try it.
