Build a blog for free.
A free blog is doable if you work in IT, otherwise just pay someone to do it.
This blog has three parts: the storage is on GitHub; the framework is Hugo; and the deploy engine is CircleCI.
These were just the best fit at the time, free and simple. This simplicity does mean limited functionality but the remit was just a basic blog so this isn’t an issue. This simplicity also means simple to use, any text editor on any device to creat a post and then stick a copy onto github and you’re published.
