My site is entirely static. It’s built with Hugo and hosted with Zeit. I’m pretty happy with the setup, I get near instant builds and super fast CDN’d content delivery and I can do all the things that I need to because I don’t have to manage any state. I’ve created a simple UI for this site and also my podcast creator that enables me to quickly post new content to my statically hosted site.
I recently returned from a trip to India to attend the Google4India event (report soon) and to meet with a lot of businesses and developers. One of the most interesting changes discussed was the push for more content in the language of the users in the country, and it was particularly apparent across all of Google’s products which ranged from making it easier to search in the users language, to find content, and also to read it back to users in either text or voice form.
By default Hugo doesn’t serve .mjs files with the correct content type. In fact it wasn’t until recently that hugo could serve more than one file extension per mime-type. It looks like with v0.43 this has been fixed. [mediaTypes] [mediaTypes.“text/javascript”] suffixes = [“js”, “mjs”] Read full post. The above code lets me serve mjs files for ES Modules with the correct mime-type (note modules need to be served with ‘text/javascript’).
