Stream deck on Pop OS

I’ve had my stream deck sit around for a bit and thought why not put it to use as I redo my linux dev machine? So I setoff and that I would document the process from here.

I found an abandoned project on github called streamdeck-linux-gui. Even though it was abandoned, it looked promising. I was able to get it running pretty quickly using the guide. In the end, I first ran the following to install pipx and setup the local bin directory and add it to the path. I also check my .profile to ensure .local was loaded on the PATH every shell session.

Setting up hugo for the first time

🚀 Hugo + Tailwind + NPM: A Guide to Static Site Domination

So I decided to build a static site with Hugo and flex my tech muscles. Of course I was lazy and used other tutorials, themes, and piggy-backed off AI, but who hasn’t these day!? I mean really. Anywho, this is my journey in getting Hugo up for this page, installing the theme, getting my local environment in just lip-smacking good condition to zoom through building out content like aa tiktok start who said that one wrong thing and now can’t get 1000 views.

What we will cover:

  • Installing Hugo (extended version, obviously)
  • Adding a theme using Hugo Modules (why it’s weird at first)
  • Converting YAML configs to TOML (because we like order)
  • Installing & using NVM for Node.js (because Tailwind needs Node)
  • Running Hugo NPM commands & updating dependencies
  • Setting up TailwindCSS for styling
  • Challenges & lessons learned
  • Future plans (Vue integration and beyond!)

🛠 1. Installing Hugo

First, install Hugo Extended, since it includes support for Sass and other necessary features.
