Infinitum Finis Design

This insight highlights the deployment for publishing new content onto my website. At first the prerequisites will be shown and after that the steps for pushing new content onto the server.

Prerequisites

The following programs are required:

• Git
• Zola
• Apache

Git is used to track changes for the complete zola directory, for the content but also for the asset directories (template, static, etc). The git setup is a classical client-server setup, the client is my laptop and the server is hosted in a data center somewhere on the planet.

In this post I am going to show you how I have build this site with Zola. The template folder is organized as followed:

templates
├──404.html
├──index.html
├──macros.html
├──page.html
├──page-static.html
└──section.html

The core file is of course the index.html file. The other files only extend the index file and add other functionalities. The "page-static.html" file is intended for single sites, like an "About" or "Legal" page.

Index

I will start with the index.html as this is the core template.
