👋 HEY, so my goal in this article is to reply to some important questions that usually beginners have with Flutter. Should you learn Flutter? Should you use it or not? When should you use it? not I’m a web developer with more than 5 years' experience, and I learned Flutter so I can develop applications for multiple platforms at the same time, BUT... I still make websites with Javascript, Node, HTML, etc. In this article, I’ll give you my personal experience. 😀 Prefer to Watch the Video Instead? Let’s talk about Flutter since it’s a technology that is getting more popular every day. Should you learn Flutter? When and Why? Multiple Platforms If you want to learn a technology that allows you to develop on multiple platforms at the same time then this is for you.nFlutter allows you to develop with the same codebase on multiple platforms, ! even the Web You can develop applications for Android, IOS, TVs, Web, Windows, Linux. And upcoming also for Fuscia! As you can see it works with all known technologies of today, using it will allow you to write with the same code and ship it for multiple platforms, which is a HUGE benefit in my opinion! Waste Less Time If you want to make any change you will not lose time having to build your application but you can see it changed in the same second you save with the . hot reload feature The most beautiful thing is that you will not even lose the state; so if you are working on the styling of a button after a popup opens you don’t have to reload every time to see the changes! I have also to add that since you develop for multiple platforms you will have more time free so you can chill out more... Just kidding, programmers never chill out, but maybe you'll have more time learning new technologies 😉 Flutter is FAST I’m not only referring to the fact that Flutter runs really fast and smoothly (I have tried it and I was impressed how it works soo good 🤯), I’m also referring to the fact that with it the development process is really fast compared to all my previous experiences! even in older devices(!) How Does it Feel to Work With? Sooo… Working with it is really enjoyable I have always worked with Web technologies like Js, Node, Sass and all this cool stuff, but Flutter was so cool to work with; probably for its different approach with all those widgets. But… Here is When and Why You Shouldn’t Learn Flutter In my opinion, you shouldn’t use Flutter if you want to create something that requires a deep dive into the device stuff. If you need to do that, it is better if you go with the native language, you'll have more open access to the device, or you can create your own packages that do your wanted feature. Since Flutter works with packages that means that you have to use a package that someone wrote in the native language, or you can write it yourself. But these are only rare cases, because for the majority of people you can absolutely work with Flutter without any problem. For example, for websites, I still use Node, JS, HTML, and CSS because I’m obsessed with SEO, so if you're like me and want a perfect performing SEO website and you want to stay in control at the minimum level you can manage fine with Flutter. Flutter is Backed and Used by Google Since Flutter is used by Google that means that they rely on it and it will not become an abandoned project, and even the community responded in a positive way. It is used even in the Fuchsia project, which means that Google will always push it and try to improve it! Yes That's it! Thanks for reading, let me know what I should improve about my writing or share your opinion about what I have said! In this way we can learn together. 👋🔥🔥🔥 Previously published here .

My Case for Why You Should Learn Flutter in 2021

Transforming Legacy with Domain-Driven Design, VI: Results

Everyone tends to remove external devices such as USB drives or external disk drives without using the safe removal option on a Windows PC. However, this practice can harm your device in the long run. This is because your operating system constantly communicates with connected external drives to retrieve information. Even if you close all folders related to the external disk, it is still highly recommended to use the “Safely Remove Hardware” option when ejecting your device. If you’re unfamiliar with the steps, in this article, I will guide you through multiple methods to safely and properly eject USB drives or external disk drives from your Windows 11 PC. While this guide focuses on external SSDs, the same methods can also be used for external HDDs and USB drives. So, even though I’ll be referring to an external SSD, keep in mind that these steps are applicable to any external disk drive or USB device. My connected SSD to my PC is named Expansion. Method 1: The Generic Way to Eject USB or Disk Drive From Taskbar: Once you connect the SSD or USB to your device, to eject it from your pc, you need to click the Show Hidden Items in the right corner of your taskbar. Now, the popup option to eject the external device will appear. From this, you need to select the option named “Eject [Device Name]” for the connected external device. Note: If you have multiple external devices connected, the list will show all the connected devices. In this case, you should carefully choose the “Eject [Device Name]” for the specific external disk drive you want to eject. In this way, you can safely eject any external disk drives connected to your Windows 11 PC. You will get a popup message that says “Your device is safe to remove.” If you receive an error message saying “Problem Ejecting USB Attached SCSI (UAS) Mass Storage Device”, don’t worry. This is a common error message, but to fix it, simply follow the steps provided below. The Fix for Problem Ejecting USB Attached SCSI (UAS) Mass Storage Devices: I have tried and tested the fixes listed below, and I’ve arranged them according to the level of difficulty in implementing each one. It’s recommended to back up your external device if necessary before attempting any of these fixes. Fix 1: Using Task Manager: The main cause of this error is usually not closing the external device’s folder or having some files from the external device open or running in the background. Additionally, you should check if OneDrive or Google Drive is backing up files from your external disk drive in the background. This can be identified by checking the Task Manager. Open the Task Manager using the keyboard shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + ESC. Look for any processes running in the background. If you find any, I recommend ending the process. Next, search for the File Explorer process in the Task Manager. Once you locate it, right-click on it and select the Restart option. This will restart the File Explorer process, which will close all folders related to the external disk drives. After this, you can use the generic method mentioned earlier to safely remove the external device, and you should no longer encounter this error when removing it from your PC. Method 2: Eject External Disk Drives Using Windows Settings: If you want to try something different from the generic method, Windows 11 offers an option to remove connected external devices through Windows Settings. To learn how to do this, follow the instructions below. Use the keyboard shortcut Winkey + I to launch Windows Settings. Then, go to the Bluetooth & Devices section. Alternatively, you can directly access the Bluetooth & Devices options from the Device Ejection Menu. In the list of options, choose Devices. This will display all the connected external devices on your PC, such as a USB mouse, USB disk drive, USB SSD disk drive, and many more. Now, you can see the 3 horizontal dots (…) at the end of the connected external device, and select the Remove device option. This option will instantly remove the connected external device from your Windows 11 PC. After doing this, you can directly remove or unplug the USB disk drive from your PC, and it won’t affect both of your devices. Method 3: Eject External USB or Disk Drives From the Device Manager: You can use this method if your external devices become corrupted and Windows is unable to safely remove the external devices connected to your PC. Open the Device Manager window using the keyboard shortcut: Winkey + X & choose the Device Manager from the list. Open Device Manager from Winkey + X Shortcut Now, you need to expand the Disk Drives option from the list to view all the connected external disk drives.


Choose the connected external device; in my case, the device name is “Seagate Expansion SCSI Disk Device“ Expanding Disk Drive options from Device Manager Then, you need to right-click on the device name and choose the option Uninstall Device.


A prompt will appear on your screen, asking you to uninstall the connected external device, as shown in the gif below. Now, you can unplug the connected external devices. Take Away: By following the steps, you can ensure that your external SSD, HDD, or USB drive is safely removed from your Windows 11 PC without causing any potential damage. Whether you’re using the generic method or Windows Settings, it’s essential to properly eject your external devices to avoid errors or data corruption. Always remember to use the “Safely Remove Hardware” option for long-term protection of your external drives and data.

What if pollsters are just too afraid of Trump this time around? Out of curiosity about the data-science side of things, in September, I started my own little forecast for the 2024 U.S. presidential election, which considers three different scenarios: ① based on weighted high-quality polls only; ② adjusted by the average polling bias from 2016/20; and ③ adjusted by just half the 2016/20 bias. I’ve previously written about my methodology and predictions here and here. In the latter article, I lay out why I believe another polling bias underestimating Trump is a very real—even probable—possibility that can’t be dismissed. Trump as a candidate seems to completely defy the laws of “normal” elections. It’s unclear how much pollsters have understood and fixed the reasons for their misses in the past 2 elections; the “shy Trump voter” might still exist. On top, Republican-initiated voter suppression—like purging voters from voter rolls in Virginia this close to an election, as recently allowed by the Supreme Court—will disadvantage Democrats in at least some places, which can’t be captured by opinion polling. In the past weeks, however, I’ve also seen arguments as to why things could be the other way ‘round this time, and I must admit that I find some of them quite convincing. Mason McCann argues around campaign-related fundamentals and that Harris has an advantage in every single one of them: money, ground game, vibe, you name it. And it’s true that it seems the Trump campaign can’t really keep up with these. While my take has been that this election is probably most similar to 2016/20 (based on the assumption that you can’t compare elections involving Trump to “normal” elections), McCann argues it might actually be closer to 2012 due to certain similarities: an “enthusiastic” campaign, “perceptions of a bad economy,” and a “very overconfident republican campaign,” among others. Finally, he makes the point that 2024 is different from 2016/20 in that HRC simply didn’t do a lot of campaigning in the Rust Belt, and in 2020, there was no GOTV ground game due to Covid, which, of course, looks very different this year. https://twitter.com/Guntar/status/1851339376196010260?embedable=true So, campaign-related fundamentals point to Harris, and admittedly, this is hard to capture in a purely polling-based forecast. If Dems manage to get their supporters to vote in bigger numbers than in 2016/20—and observations so far suggest this—there might be “a mild surprise when the electorate is not as GOP as the pollsters assume,” writes Dan Guild (@dcg1114 on Twitter). “Pollsters consistently assume a very Republican electorate—my guess is to avoid ’16/’20.” https://twitter.com/dcg1114/status/1851779439899578606?embedable=true Nate Cohn admits as much in his latest article. And @Angry_Staffer, based on this, writes: “Basically, pollsters are terrified of being wrong again, so they’re flat-out ignoring ‘very blue’ results.” https://twitter.com/Angry_Staffer/status/1852421106155540596?embedable=true So, just for funsies, let’s take a look at the case that this year will play out like 2012, shall we? Luckily, Prof. Jacob Long has done a fantastic job analyzing and providing past polling biases on his blog, and that’s what I’ll be working with. I’ll just add the point estimate for the bias to my own polling averages without adjusting my standard deviation. Simply to get a quick, general idea in which direction this would move the forecast. We’re all just 🔮ing here anyway. As a reminder, this is what my current prediction based on weighted high-quality polls only looks like. Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania are toss-ups (according to 538’s definition). Overall, Harris is the ever-so-slight favorite. And when we adjust by the 2012 polling bias, we get this: This would look a lot better for Democrats, but it’s still a relatively close race. Georgia is a toss-up now while Harris has much more comfortable chances in Michigan and Nevada. I’ve also run my Monte Carlo simulation with these probabilities: ④ With 2012 polling bias
===============================
Harris's probability of winning: 71.38%
Trump's probability of winning: 28.20%
Probability of tie: 0.41% While we’re at it, let’s also have a look at how the 2022 polling bias—from the most recent and first “post-Covid” election—would change the predictions: Most significantly here, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin are now lean or likely D. And these are also the ones where Harris is the favorite in all three of the above scenarios. Chances of winning with the 2022 polling bias: ⑤ With 2022 polling bias
===============================
Harris's probability of winning: 66.56%
Trump's probability of winning: 33.10%
Probability of tie: 0.34% So, what are we gonna do with this now? What’s the prediction? Who has the better chance of winning the election, and how good are they? I have no clue whatsoever. As I already said above, it’s all 🔮ing at this point. There are so many variables in this, so many things that could go one or the other way … What we can do at best is think about which scenarios are maybe a bit more likely than others. My opinion on this: Accurate polls (①) and the same polling bias as in 2016/20 (②) are rather unlikely. This leaves ③ (half 2016/20 bias), ④ (2012 bias), and ⑤ (2022 bias) as the more likely of my scenarios. In any case, the election is gonna happen, there’ll be a winner, and there’ll be one option that is closer than the others. All we need is just a little more patience. Please also feel free to head over to my Github—where I'll collect and archive everything—and have a look at the complete data and calculations: https://github.com/maxspeicher/2024-us-presidential-election. I also post regular updates on Bluesky and Twitter. ☕ I love coffee, and if you want to support my work, you can always send me one, or subscribe to my newsletter. 🗞️ What if pollsters are just too afraid of Trump this time around?

This leaves ③ (half 2016/20 bias), ④ (2012 bias), and ⑤ (2022 bias) as the more likely of my scenarios. the In any case, the election is gonna happen, there’ll be a winner, and there’ll be one option that is closer than the others. All we need is just a little more patience.

Election Forecasts, Schmelection Forecasts

Growing up, my weekends weren’t spent at the mall or hanging out with friends like most high schoolers my age. I was trapped in my parents' store, surrounded by boxes, shelves, and countless products awaiting inventory. My job? Take photos of products, upload them to the website, and write descriptions that somehow convinced people to buy yet another brand of phone case or random kitchen gadget. It was tedious work—the same routine over and over. I felt like a robot, except the real robots weren’t around to help. Between balancing schoolwork and the constant cycle of restocking and updating the online store, I was burnt out. The worst part wasn’t even restocking itself; it was the endless product uploads and descriptions. By Saturday afternoon, after hours of taking and editing product images, I couldn’t tell the difference between a toaster and a blender. Describing them? Even worse. I finally decided there had to be a better way. I remembered reading about AI tools that could do things like generate text and images. That’s when I found Coze.com—a no-code platform that allows anyone to create an AI chatbot using natural language to prompt its system. It was like a light bulb flickered in my head. What if I could build a chatbot to handle all the boring stuff? This could help me save time I spent taking product images, manually researching, and tying in product details into our website. Well, this I did and will show you how. Below is an outline of what I’ll discuss on how I implemented its tools in building my AI chatbot What is Coze?

Personal thoughts about Coze What’s Coze? In short, Coze is a no-code tool platform for building simple to complex AI chatbots in minutes. It allows users to easily create a wide range of bots using text. The chatbots can be published in its in-app store, WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, and a whole other bunch of social media. How It Works To create your own chatbot, simply Sign up on the platform.
Create an agent bot in your workspace.
Fill in all the required information on the pop-up screen.
Begin prompting. Prompts When customers ask or search for an item on our website, they expect to see a detailed description of it. They want to have information on what they are buying, its quality, specifications, and what makes it stand out. To provide this, I have to instruct the system on the input data it should get, and output information it should return, and in what structure. To do this, I utilize the prompt feature. A prompt is a natural language instruction that tells an AI system what to do, and Coze uses this to make it easy for anyone to describe what they intend to build. These instructions are entered into the system under personas and prompts. In my case, I wanted my bot to take the name of a product and provide me with a detailed description and specifications of it. I noticed there are two types of prompting while building. Agent prompt, which tells the chatbot what to build, how to build it, and results to return to users. End user prompt, which queries the built chatbot to return desired results Coze allows for the optimization of initially written prompts so it can return the best results in a well-structured manner, including a well-detailed skill set my chatbot should have. Plugins As the saying goes, pictures speak louder than words, and what better way to reinforce the item specifications than giving customers an image of the item they searched for and intend to buy? They don’t just get to read about what the products are made of or can do but get a visual representation of every detail. To add this level of detail to my chatbot, plugins came into play. Plugins are what make most Coze bots run faster and more effectively, delivering the best results, much like how my parent’s store utilizes the services of established delivery companies to send out paid items to customers. They are additional software components that extend the functionality of an application. Plugins provide specialized features and capabilities that the base application, in this case, my AI chatbot, does not have. To enhance my chatbot, I made use of two plugins: Stable Diffusion and Gemini AI. Gemini AI provided my chatbot with information on inputted product items. It takes the name of the product from the user prompt, searches through its large knowledge base, and returns a response. A stable diffusion plugin makes it easy to generate high-quality product images. Database Much like how we have a warehouse for storage and retrieval of items. I needed to be able to store the product information generated for easy reference and retrieval instead of having to prompt the system every time I needed the same information. Databases are used to store information to be retrieved at a later time. For my chatbot, I created a database by specifying the table name, name of fields, type of data to be collected, and if it required information. Since Coze is a no-code tool, I can easily type in this field name, and it would be created as an SQL database. To record data in the database, I simply specified a new skill in the prompt and persona section, referencing the database table name and its fields. Also, I enabled a file box that, in Coze, holds large files, such as images, to store the product images. This would come in handy when I needed to download the images to use on my parent’s online store. Check out Skill 3 in the image below. Outcome In the preview panel, I tested my newly created chatbot and got the following results as shown in the image below. My chatbot generated a response when queried with a product name and image and stored the result in its database for easy retrieval when needed or the chat has been cleared. Benefits of Using My AI Chatbot By the time I had it fully functional, everything changed. Instead of spending hours with a camera taking product pictures and trying to give a description of the product based on my knowledge, I’d simply input the product name, and my AI chatbot would take care of the rest. It even handled multiple product variations. The best part is it helped cut down our marketing and advertising costs because the AI-generated images were good enough to post right away on social media and campaign boards. We didn’t have to spend huge amounts hiring a professional photographer to take product images for the store when we needed to run a sales campaign. Now, what used to take me an entire weekend only took a couple of hours. Personal Thoughts After building my chatbot utilizing Coze, here are my personal thoughts about it. Coze makes complicated AI chatbots look easy. Before them, you had to be an experienced developer to build out an AI product, but with Coze, a novice can get started easily with zero level of expertise. Making AI chatbot development more accessible. Launching your chatbot on its platform or another platform, such as WhatsApp, is simple with guides to help individuals achieve this. This makes using my developed chatbot on my favorite platform without hassle. Sometimes, it feels the plugins are limited but Coze allows for the development of plugins to be added to its library. Anyone can design a plugin and publish it on the Coze store. This alone allows for a more robust platform and tools. Coze's emphasis on using real-time data and personalization enables the creation of more tailored and effective AI chatbots. This improves user experiences and drives engagement with businesses and services. Coze encourages experimentation and innovation in AI chatbot development. This leads to the creation of new and exciting chatbot applications which addresses a variety of needs.

How do people like us, who started with $0 in web3 over a few years make a small fortune? That is the question, and this article will give you the answers. My name is Splashy, and welcome to the 1%.” Almost every project will cook if you can enter the top 3 on the leaderboard. BACK STORY I bought my first piece of crypto in 2013 and sold it a few days later for 2x profit. That was my introduction to crypto, I didn’t understand it, but it was something that could catch on. My first taste of crypto money was exciting, I was hooked, I started researching crypto to understand it more, and I learned about altcoins, and their incredible potential to moon hard [do 100x plus]. Eventually, at the top around 1300, I bought plenty of Bitcoin Cash with money I couldn’t afford to lose. Bitcoin Cash never reached that all-time high again. Five years later, I sold BTC Cash at a loss. I lost interest in crypto for a while and decided to seek my fortune elsewhere. I got a job, worked hard at it, and saved up a bit, but quit cold turkey because I was losing my mind. The hours were bad, and we worked based on a roster so I couldn’t define my time or hang out with friends… While searching for an alternative to this lifestyle, I settled again on crypto and started learning how to trade, trading was fun and quite profitable for me, but the profit was little because I didn’t have much capital to trade with. If it’s so easy to make money trading, why the fuck am I working so hard for it? I set out to build my trading capital. ALPHA 1:- CAPITAL IS THE TRUTH To make decent money from anything, you need money to start with or plenty of time, you can’t escape this …call it the iron rule…you either spend money or time. In 2023, I went all in on crypto, trading, farming airdrops, NFT free mints, and degen trading. I tried every single area I heard about (still doing that). I made a decent amount of money and moved to a cheaper country to reduce my living expenses. I’m not there yet, but damn, I feel close. Enough of the backup story I know you’re dying to know how to make 100x from crypto and earn consistent income from crypto, but here it is, straight from my heart with no filters. BUILDING YOUR CAPITAL IN CRYPTO FROM 0$ Firstly, you need to pick a niche, airdrop farmer, investor, creator, free mint hunter, or degen trader, choose one. Secondly, understand your place in your niche, in this space everybody needs everybody. Projects need people, and they incentivize them by organizing airdrops. Understand your unique position and start where you are, some methods of making money are harder than others, but you can start from where you are right now. Stage 0: you have zero capital: start farming airdrops or free mints or get a mod job: focus mf, don’t dilly dally -> your goal here is to raise capital and move to stage 1. Stage 1: you have 10k capital: start trading full-time or content creation full-time, in my case, I do both. Stage 2: 500k+ plus, become a micro investor, keep trading, keep creating content, and add value to the community that made you and crypto at large. STAGE 0 to 1 If you’re at stage 0 looking for that 10k…it’s easy but, it’s going to take time. Find an airdrop or free mint that can give you a potential 100 USD, and do it 100 times. Alternatively, find an airdrop or free mint that can give you 1000 USD, and do it 10 times. Easy right? EASY AND HARD….because nobody fucking knows which airdrop is going to cook hard, and doing everything you see on your X (Twitter) timeline is a recipe for burnout. ALPHA 2:- RESIST THE URGE TO DO ALL Every airdrop cooks hard, but not for everybody, you want to participate in airdrops only when you can cook hard, getting to the top 100 in 2 airdrops campaigns is better than being top 10k in 10 airdrops. After starting, if you sense that you can’t make it to the top 100, ditch it asap, and keep searching for the one. When you are in the top 10 of any project, fade everything else and focus hard till you get your goal. I tried everything, at one point I was farming 170+ airdrops at once, my daily task alone across all accounts took the whole day, and when the projects I was farming released a new task It took me days to catch up… tough times. Doing everything just doesn’t work. I get a little 100 USD, some 300 USD, a few 1k, and plenty 10–50 USD… after farming for months…not good. Save yourself the trouble, and resist the urge to do all. Conclusion: I’m going to help you move from stage 0 to 1. Finding Alpha is a full-time job. Reading and understanding tokenomics and whitepaper is a skill newbies learn over time, before you learn to do your research (DYOR), I’ll help you with your homework. This is my promise to you, expect cooks and alpha from me, follow me on x @splashy_effort, send me a dm, and drop your thoughts below. Your’s in crypto, splashy🧩 SUMMARY:- steps to 100x find your edge [automation, writing, speaking, design, etc]
pick a hustle [FREE MINTS, TESTNET AIRDROPS, PLAY 2 AIRDROPS, etc.]
only pick projects where you can top the leaderboard
do 10x or 100x of the above projects Want more good stuff like this? Follow me on x @splashy_effort PS: I pinned this post on my x account to remind myself to work only on things where I have an edge, you should do the same.

100x Secrets for Crypto Newbies: How I Went From 0$ to 100k

Implementing Geo-Location Redirects with AWS CloudFront

In this post, I go through how I have set up my Obsidian and Hugo blogging workflow. I use a single vault and auto-publish my articles with hotkeys. If you clicked on this article, you probably know what Obsidian and Hugo are, but if you don’t, here’s a quick explanation: Obsidian Obsidian is a feature-packed markdown editor. But it’s not just a markdown editor. It’s a way to manage knowledge. It’s great for organizing your thoughts in a flexible, non-linear way. Obsidian works on all platforms. So, you can write articles from basically any platform. I have been taking all of my notes in it for a couple of months now, and it’s amazing! Hugo Hugo is an ultra-fast static website generator made in Golang. I have been using Hugo for my blog for almost 2 years now. I recently switched the theme of my blog. Read more about the change New Look, new start. Using Obsidian with Hugo In this guide, I’ll show you how to get Obsidian and Hugo working together. I won’t cover the initial setup of either tool, but I’ll explain how to integrate them for a smooth blogging workflow. If you need help setting up Hugo, check out my guide: How I Setup This Blog for Free (Domain, Hosting, SSL) Complete Guide. And if you’re new to Obsidian, check out this Getting Started Guide. Goals for Using Hugo With Obsidian My goals for the setup are: Using a single obsidian vault.
Have an easy-to-use obsidian template that I can use for my blog posts.
Keep my personal vault folders private.
Auto-publish using obsidian hotkeys.
Have all markdown files in a public GitHub repository, so that people can propose changes Existing Setup Here’s how my current workflow with Obsidian and Hugo looks: I write and edit articles directly in Obsidian, within the content folder of my Hugo project.


I run the Hugo command to generate the static site.


I push the changes to GitHub.


Render.com automatically picks up the changes and deploys the updated site. Journey If you want to skip the journey part, you can go straight to The Sauce. I will be going through a couple of mistakes that I made while setting this up. Mistake #1 The first idea that I had was to create a simple symlink (I use Linux btw) that would link the two folders together. Basically, I have two folders: blog/
vault/ The blog folder contains all the blog folders, and the vault is my personal vault. The symlink would link these folders. blog/content
vault/Blog However, the problem with a symlink is that the folder content is not visible in my git repo. This means that people can not propose changes to any of my articles. Mistake #2 I wanted to have my folders synced. I tried writing a couple of bash scripts that automatically synced the two folders using a cronjob. However, having that constantly running in the background is a waste of resources when I am not writing. Simply running the scripts via CLI is just not that smooth. The Sauce Basically, the way that I have set this up is I have two folders: blog
vault The blog folder contains all the necessary Hugo files and also has a sub-directory called content that houses all of the markdown blog files. I created a new folder inside my vault called Blog. blog/content
vault/Blog After that, I copied all of my files from the content directory to the Blog. I then started writing this very article. Obsidian Templates I needed some way to set up a simple obsidian template to contain all of the required hugo front matter. That is quite easy. Read about how to set templates Templates - obsidian.md I created a file called Blog Post in my templates folder. My Blog Post template contains the following: ---
title: "{{Title}}"
description: 
date: "{{date:YYYY-MM-DD}}T{{time:HH:mm:ss}}+00:00"
draft: true

**If you enjoyed this article consider [supporting me](https://4rkal.com/donate)** I have all the required front matter including a title, description, and a date in the format that Hugo asks. I also added a small donation text that I include at the bottom of every article. This means that I can automatically insert this template into any file and start writing! Folder Syncing Now, I want all of my files in my vault/Blog directory to be copied over to the blog/content. Essentially connecting Hugo and Obsidian. Thanks to a helpful Discord user, I found the obsidian-shellcommands plugin. NOTE: This plugin does not currently work very well with the flatpak version of Obsidian (since flatpak isolates the environment). Using another alternative (.deb or appimage) seems to work. It allows you to run shell commands in the background with a hotkey. The steps to set this up are the following: Install the plugin
Enable the plugin
Go to the plugin options
Click on New shell command
Now, you will need to enter a shell command to copy the files from one folder to the other. On Linux/MacOS, that is: cp -a ~/folder1/. ~/folder2/ In my case, that is cp -a ~/Documents/vault/Blog/. ~/Documents/blog/content/ On Windows, it most probably is: robocopy "%USERPROFILE%\folder1" "%USERPROFILE%\folder2" /E /COPYALL After that, we need to set a hotkey that will run the command. Click on the (+) icon to go to the hotkey settings and assign a hotkey. My hotkey is CTR + 0, simply because that was available. Now, every time that I run the hotkey it copies all of my files to the Hugo folder ready to be published. Auto-Publishing Scripts I also want to be able to automatically publish my articles. But I want it to happen when hitting a hotkey. I wrote a small script that does exactly that: #!/bin/bash
cd ~/Documents/blog

hugo

git add .
git commit -m "new"
git push -u origin main This script will build my website, commit it, and push it to my GitHub repo, where it is picked up and published. Read How I set up this blog for free (domain, hosting, ssl) Complete Guide to learn how to set up your own blog for free. Don’t forget to make the script executable by running. chmod +x ./YOURSCRIPT.sh Then create a new shell command for the shellcommand plugin (as we did before) and enter the path to your script. In my case, that is: ~/Documents/blog/push.sh Then enter a hotkey, and you’re done! Conclusion I can now simply open my obsidian vault, create a new file, insert my template, and have all the info automatically entered. I then write my article inside of obsidian. Run my hotkey and copy all the files into the Hugo directory. Hit another key, and my blog is published! If you enjoyed this article consider supporting me.

I use a single vault and auto-publish my articles with hotkeys. If you clicked on this article, you probably know what Obsidian and Hugo are, but if you don’t, here’s a quick explanation: Obsidian Obsidian is a feature-packed markdown editor. But it’s not just a markdown editor. It’s a way to manage knowledge. It’s great for organizing your thoughts in a flexible, non-linear way. Obsidian Obsidian works on all platforms. So, you can write articles from basically any platform. I have been taking all of my notes in it for a couple of months now, and it’s amazing! Hugo Hugo is an ultra-fast static website generator made in Golang. I have been using Hugo for my blog for almost 2 years now. I recently switched the theme of my blog.

How I Setup This Blog for Free (Domain, Hosting, SSL) Complete Guide Getting Started Guide Goals for Using Hugo With Obsidian My goals for the setup are: Using a single obsidian vault.

If you want to skip the journey part, you can go straight to The Sauce . The Sauce I will be going through a couple of mistakes that I made while setting this up. Mistake #1 The first idea that I had was to create a simple symlink (I use Linux btw) that would link the two folders together. Basically, I have two folders: blog/
vault/ blog/
vault/ The blog folder contains all the blog folders, and the vault is my personal vault. The symlink would link these folders. blog/content
vault/Blog blog/content
vault/Blog However, the problem with a symlink is that the folder content is not visible in my git repo. This means that people can not propose changes to any of my articles. the problem Mistake #2 I wanted to have my folders synced. I tried writing a couple of bash scripts that automatically synced the two folders using a cronjob. However, having that constantly running in the background is a waste of resources when I am not writing. Simply running the scripts via CLI is just not that smooth. The Sauce Basically, the way that I have set this up is I have two folders: blog
vault blog
vault The blog folder contains all the necessary Hugo files and also has a sub-directory called content that houses all of the markdown blog files. I created a new folder inside my vault called Blog. blog/content
vault/Blog blog/content
vault/Blog After that, I copied all of my files from the content directory to the Blog. I then started writing this very article. I then started writing this very article. Obsidian Templates I needed some way to set up a simple obsidian template to contain all of the required hugo front matter. That is quite easy. Read about how to set templates Templates - obsidian.md Templates - obsidian.md I created a file called Blog Post in my templates folder. Blog Post My Blog Post template contains the following: Blog Post ---

My Obsidian + Hugo Blogging Setup: A Smooth Blogging Workflow

As we enter the era of AI, everything seems to be accelerating at an unprecedented speed. Generative this, generative that—data overload everywhere. I'm pretty sure you're already mentally fatigued from all the information, so let’s cut to the chase, shall we? What I wanna do: YouTube Video → Bite-sized Information → Learning ✨ + Sharing on Social Media 🐦 … That’s it … In this AI race, everything is about speed. If we can leverage AI to accelerate our learning, why not? So, share this—whether with your family, friends, or followers, or even as an influencer. The Outcomes: Repo: https://github.com/WorkSmarter-lol/yt2tweets-cli/ Disclaimer: This tutorial only works for YouTube videos with English subtitles and is not applicable to YouTube Shorts. The process 0. Prerequisite Knowledge: Before getting started, it is crucial to have some basic how LangChain.js, Prompt Engineering, and OpenAI Models work. 1. Prerequisite Tools: OpenAI API-Key (we’re using OpenAI GPT-4o-mini)
youtube-transcript (NPM package) — extract a transcript from a youtube video
Node.js
Yarn / NPM
LangChain.js For my case, I’m using yarn to start the development. As for a quick start to test out the script, I did a quick MVP using CLI to try out the project. 2. Choosing name for CLI For quick reference and a catchy name, I called it “yt2tweets”, which essentially means → “YouTube to Tweets”. 3. Desired Output $ yt2tweets "https://youtu.be/1-TZqOsVCNM"

# Result:
#  Tweet 1: Introduction ... 🧵👇 (1/X)
#  Tweet 2: ... 🧵 (2/X)
#  Tweet 3: ... 🧵 (3/X)
#  Tweet 4: ... 🧵 (4/X)
#  Tweet 5: Conclusion ... 🧵 (5/X) Ideally, we need to provide the transcript as context for the AI model, which is GPT-4o-mini in our case, so it can understand the context and summarize the input in the output format we specified. 4. Prompt Design Here lies the secret sauce ✨ for making things work: Prompt Engineering is a necessary core skill to get the job done. To customize how the CLI converts YouTube videos into Twitter/X threads, follow the simple and easy 3-step setup that I’ve defined. You can adjust the tone, length, and style to fit your needs. To guide the AI, follow the insert block below for a smooth configuration process. Identity and purpose Set the AI’s role and goals with the Identity and Purpose block. Define its function and objectives to ensure it generates content that aligns with your needs and desired outcomes. Steps Define the step-by-step actions for the AI to follow, ensuring a clear and structured approach for generating your content. Output formats Specify the formats in which the AI should deliver content. Example as below: import { ChatPromptTemplate } from '@langchain/core/prompts';

const prompt = ChatPromptTemplate.fromMessages([
    {
      role: 'system',
      content: `
        # IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
       
        {identity}

        # STEPS
       
        {steps}

        # OUTPUT INSTRUCTIONS
       
        {formats}

        # INPUT
       
        INPUT: {input}
      `,
    },
  ]); The {input} is where I put in all the transcript for GPT to do the summarisation. Reference for how I added my prompt can be found here, with an example below: 5. Putting it All Together Finally, in order for it to run, you need to have @langchain/openai installed and your OpenAI API key ready. Once everything is sorted out, you can initiate the model and start passing prompts and feeds to the AI for a response. import { ChatOpenAI } from '@langchain/openai';

// Instantiate Model
const llm = new ChatOpenAI({
  modelName: 'gpt-4o-mini',
  temperature: 0.7, // <-- feel free to adjust temperature here
  apiKey,
});

// ...
// add prompts here
// ...

// Ensure that chain.invoke correctly passes the variables
result = await prompt.pipe(llm).invoke({
  identity,
  steps,
  formats,
  input,
});

// get result
console.log('>> result?.content'); // Tweet 1: Introduction ... 🧵👇 (1/X) ... 6. Wrap It Up as a CLI For convenience, I exported the function as a CLI so it will be easy for me to use in the future. To achieve that, I used: Commander — to enable CLI for NPM package BIN
Ora — Elegant terminal spinner
Chalk — Terminal string styling A snippet of the code is provided below (full code at the end): import { Command } from 'commander';
import chalk from 'chalk';
import ora from 'ora';
const spinner = ora('Loading...');

// Initialize the command line interface
const program = new Command();

// Command to convert a YouTube URL
program
  .argument('<url>')
  .description('Turn YouTube Videos into Twitter Threads with AI')
  .action(async url => {
    const apiKey = readApiKey(); // Read the saved API key

    spinner.start();
    await convertYt2Tweets(url, apiKey);
