A quick description of how this blog is set up, and how to create posts from an Android phone.

The blog is a simple set of pages, generated from local markdown files using the Hugo static site generator. Hugo is running on a small LXC container inside a Proxmox PVE on a little 5th generation i5 NUC running at my home location

The Hugo markdown files in the LXC containers are themselves simply a mount from a shared folder on my Synology NAS (sitting right next to that little i5 NUC). So basically any markdown files created or copied into that NAS shared folder will be a post for my blog when the Hugo site is compiled. There is a similar folder for static resources such as pictures to be included in the blog.
