I am currently using Hugo as a static site generator for my blog. It’s not bad but rather limited. Does anybody know about something that would be equally as lightweight but offer some more flexibility. I just don’t know what is out there so anything you guys could come up with would be appreciated.
The only limiting factor is really that if I am, say, in a public place that bans SSH access or SFTP access. I am starting to see more of this as deep packet inspection becomes available to the masses now. I could be composing my blog post on my laptop but be unable to otherwise publish it if I am on such a network that combines deep packet inspection with locking down ports.
That is a networking issue which is not specific to Hugo. You need to solve this as most of the suggestions also involve SSH.
One way is to use a VPN like openvpn or wireguard that can use a common port like 80 or 443.
No, of course it is not specific to Hugo. Solid point on OpenVPN because I forgot it can use TCP. However, does OpenVPN’s negotiation look like a TLS handshake from a browser to a client? Again, deep packet inspection is my enemy here.
Deep packet inspection is unlikely the culprit in my experience. SSH and SFTP use port 22 by default which is probably blocked. I log in to my work VPN through common ports 80 and 443 on public WiFi.
