I came across numerous solutions over the internet to work my way through the site.

Realization

Starting off, I was inspired by Hugo and even set-upped everything there using the Congo theme (which btw is already v. cool in terms of look and customizations). However, soon enough I came to realize this one thing…

Solution

Now I do know that there are about a ton of plugins available which can allow you to do just that. But I needed some kind of all in one package. That is exactly when I came across Quartz. This bad boy made everything about this site possible. With high level customizations and unique plugins, it allows everything to be crafted smoothly, I knew right from the start that ‘this is the framework I needed’.

Resources

Long story short, I came across different ideas people have built using Quartz to work with their workflows. Following the resources which helped me craft one of my own:
