Limitations?
-
hugodown is a WIP minimal package.
-
the function I demo-ed is in my fork, see the main project for existing theme.
-
Hugo changes a lot (but hugodown helps protect your projects from that)
What about blogdown?!
It recently got updated so it can work like hugodown (no old post building, pfiew).
Many features! E.g. build.R and build2.R
The blogdown book will be updated soon
So blogdown or hugodown
-
Start with hugodown, minimal and less docs to read.
-
Follow the RStudio blog to know about blogdown updates.
-
Switch to blogdown if you need a more custom workflow? Or after its book update?
