To build the site locally, run:
$ git clone https://git.vanlug.p8.lu/pojntfx/vanlug.p8.lu
$ cd vanlug.p8.lu
$ npm install
$ hugo serverBy default, the static site is configured to use the production version of our API hosted at https://vanlug.p8.lu/api, which is deployed as a Podman quadlet by https://codeberg.org/pojntfx/vanlug-infrastructure. During development, if you'd like to make changes to the API, first set api in data/links.yaml to http://localhost:8080, then start it locally by running the following:
$ export SITE_URL=http://localhost:1313/ MASTODON_SERVER=https://thecanadian.social MASTODON_ACCESS_TOKEN=myaccesstoken
$ go run .vanlug.p8.lu (c) 2026 Felicitas Pojtinger and contributors
