After years of struggling with jekyll’s limitations and idiosyncracies, today I moved to hugo. It took several hours. Importing content The Migrate to Hugo page suggests a few tools. First I tried the jekyll import command built-in. It moved the posts correctly. But the filename retained the date prefix as in jekyll. And I wasn’t sure if the date was correctly captured in frontmatter. Then I looked at the JekyllToHugo tool. It was just a simple python file. I liked this because I could change the behaviour to my liking. In fact, I did change a lot. I’m attaching the modified version of this at the end of this post.
