As you know this blog is built with Hugo . I’m looking at ways to improve the performance of the website and one of the critical point is to serve the minimal amount of data to the user. In this article I will show you how to optimize the images rendering with Hugo.

I recently started to collect vinyls and I wanted to display my collection on my website.

I made use of the Hugo data templates to store the vinyl list and their details and dynamically generated the collection page.

Few years ago I made a simple tutorial to explain how to build a dark mode theme switcher in CSS . Today I want to update it and show you how to do it in SCSS and how to use the default system theme.
