Hey HN crew -<p>I'm putting together a "local notes --> publishable knowledge-base site" workflow (it's a git-versioned Hugo site which sits in an iCloud folder. I'm using iA Writer as the main writing IDE. When ready to publish (on iPhone/iPad), I use Working Copy to commit & push the changes, and then GitLab Pages builds & publishes the site. It's a new setup for me - but works pretty well. Happy to share details if anyone is interested in the setup.<p>Questions / Issues<p>- How to Cross-link while in the writing flow (e.g. Notion-style linking). What I want to do, is to be able to quickly stub out [[Important Ideas]], and over time expand those entries into pages. But it seems I've got to figure out ways to translate [[ ]] topics into links when publishing out to Hugo. What's the best way to do this? I see there are Hugo Shortlinks - but those look like a pain to write out frequently...<p>- Renaming & "shaping" content over time - Sometimes I change the name of a page - I'd love to be able to update entires all over the site (I believe Obsidian keeps track of file names? Can iA Writer? Right now, when writing, I have no idea when I create a broken link. What's the latest on automatic link integrity checkers. Is there a tool which could fail to publish my site if it included a broken link?<p>- How would you recommend adding photos to content? I haven't figured out how to get /topic/foo/photo-of-foo.jpg to appear in /topic/foo/foo-notes when published? For example, in iA Writer, I'll import an image, it seems to save the image saved in the same directory as the text content. I can preview it in iA Writer and the image appears, but when I publish to Hugo, I'm guessing that Hugo is not referring to the image correctly?? Apologies that's vague - but the gyst is, "out of the box", it seems like I've got to "sort out how to embed images". I often will start a page on my phone - a few quick text notes, a few images... will publish it, and them come back a few days later to expand on it. Just want that "publish some text and pictures" flow to be easy.<p>- Somewhat related - What's the current "best practices" on where to put related files (e.g. photos, diagrams, videos, etc that accompany or are embedded in a document). I am considering setting up a dedicated media.example.com. I'd love to have a local folder of files, and have it atomatically sync to an S3 bucket or something, which serves /<topic>/<subtopic>/{photos, videos, audio, pdfs, etc}. On the content page, it could refer to those image links absolutely. Still.. frustrating having to make a whole separate "tree".<p>- What do you suggest for site search? I want it to feel as quick as Mac's Spotlight search, where it starts autocompleting suggestions.<p>- Other stuff: Can anyone suggest their favorite "good out of the box" Hugo themes? I've got to make several microsites, and I'd like to arrive to a few themes which are a "safe default"<p>Thank you for any advice. Very new to this, so trying to be productive without getting too bogged down.
