Edit: the recently updated JSON Feed 1.1 spec brings the more specific application/feed+json MIME type; I’ve updated the site’s JSON Feed has to use this MIME type for JSON Feeds instead.

Another new site update 🎉 (albeit a small one). In this update I’ve added support for both RSS and JSON Feeds . Now anyone can subscribe to get the latest updates using their feed reader of choice 📲.

Admittedly, implementing this took slightly longer than I had anticipated, specifically when it came to generating my own templates. While Hugo has a decent amount of documentation on this, figuring out how it all fit together eluded me. Looking back, it does make a lot more sense now, but to quote the words of another programmer:

“it makes a ton of sense after you already know what’s going on — but not before."

I might consider writing a post on how to add RSS and JSON feeds to a Hugo site in the future. Until then, please feel welcome to check back in again for more updates.
