This looks like an interesting project.

I've browsed the various Hugo themes and the example web sites. I 
think I've seen websites similar to and themes suitable for a 
variety of sites I'd like to consolidate: archaeology course 
syllabus and class calendar; documentation for a software project; 
a publication list with download links; and a book/article review 
blog.  I use org-mode for writing these kinds of thing now, and 
I'm hoping to work out a way to make my org mode source work with 
Hugo.

I'm especially keen on previewing the web pages as I work on them, 
which was super easy to set up (thanks!), and generating 
"responsive" content to satisfy my smartphone connected students.

I see that ox-hugo and many Hugo templates have a blog as their 
focus.  Is it reasonable to go down the ox-hugo path for my 
planned sites?  Or, is the blog focus likely to restrict what I'd 
like to do?

All the best,
Tom
