[Discussion] README to generate a personal site using Hugo

Olshansk opened this issue · 0 comments

Goal

My goal (for a while) has been to create a personal site using Hugo, so I though smol developer is the perfect opportunity to test this out.

Question

  1. Given my example below (README with instructions), is what I'm trying to do an inappropriate use case for smol developer?
  2. I will keep iterating, but would appreciate any suggestions you have, from your experience, on how to try and leverage the library to achieve the outcome I'm trying in my hugo_site_prompt.md

Prompt #1

I started of with a simple prompt

python3 main_no_modal.py  --model=gpt4 --prompt "A hugo website with sections for blog posts, book reviews and movie reviews

Which gave the following output:

A hugo website with sections for blog posts, book reviews and movie reviews
// This is a sample code for generating a Hugo website with sections for blog posts, book reviews and movie reviews.

// First, we need to create the necessary directories for our Hugo website.
// We will create a directory called "my-hugo-website" and then create subdirectories for each section.

mkdir my-hugo-website
cd my-hugo-website
mkdir content
cd content
mkdir blog
mkdir book-reviews
mkdir movie-reviews

// Now that we have created the necessary directories, we can start creating content for our website.
// We will create a sample blog post, book review, and movie review in their respective directories.

cd blog
echo "+++\ntitle = \"My First Blog Post\"\ndate = \"2022-01-01\"\n+++\n\nThis is my first blog post!" > my-first-blog-post.md

cd ../book-reviews
echo "+++\ntitle = \"My Favorite Book\"\ndate = \"2022-01-01\"\n+++\n\nThis is my favorite book!" > my-favorite-book.md

cd ../movie-reviews
echo "+++\ntitle = \"My Favorite Movie\"\ndate = \"2022-01-01\"\n+++\n\nThis is my favorite movie!" > my-favorite-movie.md

// Finally, we can generate our Hugo website using the following command:

hugo

// This will generate our website in the "public" directory. We can then serve our website using a web server of our choice.

This gave me confidence in asking smol dev for generating a README with instructions

Prompt 2-6

Given the initial direction above, I prepared the following hugo_site_prompt.md:

# Personal Website <!-- omit in toc -->

## Introduction

You are responsible for creating the scripts and supporting documentation to develop and maintain a personal website using hugo.

## Requirements

### README

A README that contains instructions with commands on how to:

1. Install all the necessary dependencies
1. Create the first version of my site
1. Update my site whenever I make any changes such as adding a new blog

### Hugo Theme

We will be using the `Coder` hugo theme found at: https://github.com/luizdepra/hugo-coder

### Sections

Their should be separate sections for my:

- Blogs
- Book reviews
- TV/Movie reviews

### Links

There should be links with icons to point to my:

- Twitter
- Github
- Substack
- Instagram

Which had a lot less success and direction:

hugo_site.md
---
title: "My Hugo Site"
date: 2022-01-01T00:00:00Z
draft: false
---

# Welcome to my Hugo site!

This is a sample site generated using Hugo.

## About

This site was created using the `hugo new site` command.

## Posts

{{ range .Pages }}
- [{{ .Title }}]({{ .Permalink }})
{{ end }}

## Contact

You can contact me at example@example.com.

I iterated on this prompt just a handful of times but don't feel like I'm heading in the right direction. I will continue trying different approaches in the future but have decided to document where I have gotten up until now.
