Pushing content into Hugo

Discover how to push content into Hugo using IFTTT, tackle live update challenges, and explore improvements for a seamless blogging experience.

The writer has been experimenting with a proof of concept Hugo site using IFTTT; a recipe tool that feeds information into a Dropbox text file and onto a Hugo content page. He included a links page based on the websites he personally included via the Pocket app. While the implementation works well, there is a problem with Hugo watch updates when the links text file is changed, preventing a live update.
