Plugins for OpenFastTrace

We are very happy to announce a new feature for OpenFastTrace in version 4.1.0: You can now create and use third party plugins! Using plugins you can extend OFT with new imports and exports without modifying the core product. The very first plugin openfasttrace-asciidoc-plugin was contributed by @sophokles73 and is available in version 0.2.0. We also have good news for Maven users: It’s very easy to use OFT plugins with our openfasttrace-maven-plugin if they are published to a Maven repository, see the documentation for details.

A Second pair of Eyes

Which developer does not know this situation: you debug like a mad person and form all sorts of crazy theories my the code in front of you does not work. Especially if you are new to a topic — like we are with our shiny new Hugo blog. When I created the blog, I intended to keep the directory structure identical to the old WordPress blog: <domain>/<year>/<month>/<day>/<post> All good and well, until I updated to a different theme, because the minimal theme by Calin Tataru that I originally chose — and which I still find stunningly beautiful in its clean simplicity — is apparently not maintained anymore.
