Creating an online exhibition with Free Software tools
summary
A historian builds a prototype online exhibition of technical construction toys using Hugo with the LightB theme, stores content in a GitHub repo named "industrial play", and edits with Visual Studio Code, adding multilingual pages and tag-driven themes like education, gender, and technology. The site is modular and template-based, uses AI for translation, and demonstrates cost-effective open source benefits and long-term sustainability but remains offline while copyright and image licensing are resolved.
