The [https://www.chicks.net/](https://www.chicks.net) web site is built and

maintained with [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/)!

There is [a plan](TODO.md) -- that is moving at a glacial yet humane speed.

## Code of Conduct

Please refer to the [CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) to learn about our

expectations for contributors.  I would guess the chances of collaboration on

this repo are so small as to be unmeasurable, but this is a trivial compliance

thing to check off and I'm trying to get all of my repos closer to best

practices.

## Thanks

- Hosted by [Flamingo Internet Navigators](https://www.fini.net/).

- Thanks to github for hosting the git repo.

- Thanks to neovim for showing that `vi` still has a worthy place in tech, 50

  years after `vi`s invention.

- Thanks to the [hugo](https://gohugo.io/) community for the tools and themes

  that made this possible.

- Thanks to [just](https://just.systems/man/en/) and

  [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/) for fostering automation.

## Just is awesome

Check out the [`justfile`](https://github.com/chicks-net/www-chicks-net/blob/main/justfile)

for all of the ways to remember less and do more.  Watching

[my youtube video on just](https://youtu.be/m7ZCnGnYyvs?si=QNvUZJiGo20FVdnD)

would be a great way to see what I'm trying to do here.

Between [just](https://just.systems/man/en/) and

[GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/) you can get a way to manage the full

development cycle from the command line.

The resulting development cycle is as toil-free as I can imagine making it:

### Development Cycle

![dev-process animation](https://github.com/fini-net/template-repo/raw/main/docs/dev-process.gif)

1. Start a new branch with `just branch $branch_name` or `just post $title_slug`.

1. If making a post, edit the template built by `just post`.  Otherwise, make

   some change.

1. Add a commit to the branch.

1. Push to github and create a new Pull Request with `just pr`.

1. Merge the PR with `just merge` which also gets our local repo back to latest

   `main`.  So we can start the whole process over again.

I love that I can do all of this from the terminal, but the web UX is there if you still want it.
