My laptop was not even able to start any boot loader - it booted straight to the device diagnosis application that the hardware manufacturer ships.
In this guide I’ll show the necessary steps to set up a Codeberg Git repository in Drone CI and run a simple build pipeline to generate and upload your static Hugo website. Anoxinon e.V. from Germany is using a very similar setup to make its blog authors’ life easier.
