Hugo bloggin' with Obsidian like a boss
by
Post details
One of my goals when I refreshed my blog was to publish with Hugo, but write with Obsidian. Turns out that was as simple as: ln -s ~/src/jerodsanto/net/content/posts ~/Dropbox/obsidian/Jerod/blog That’s a good start, but once I’m writing in Obsidian… I don’t exactly want to leave. There’s friction when managing various Hugo tasks from a separate terminal session. So, I had Claude Code write me an Obsidian plugin to add those features. It’s called Hugo Boss1 and I submitted it to the Obsidian community plugins list, so hopefully you’ll be able to install it from there soon2. The plugin adds a button that has four features today:

Justin Searls quit social media by posting more. How, exactly, did he do that? By writing way too much Ruby code to cross-post his blog to all the social networks using an atom feed of his design. POSSE is an old idea: publish on your own site, syndicate elsewhere. That’s desirable, for sure, but not always easy to accomplish. POSSE Party is the new app Justin released so others can accomplish the same without all the work he went through.
