I like statisctics and numbers and I like looking at them, how they are changing and growing. Back when this blog was started I wanted to display some statistics on it but due to its very young age it would be meaningless. That changes now. This blog is around for over two years and it is time to put some nice numbers on it. At first I struggled about what to actualy count and how to do it within Hugo or if I should prepare the stats outside of it (bit of scripting can never hurt).

Until “now” I was happy user of Jekyll static site generator, everything worked fine with it and blog was easy to manage. The major drawback of Jekyll (for me that is) is that it is written in Ruby and I never before worked with Ruby. Because of this I diceded to go the “easy” route and use docker image to simplify the initial installation and Jekyll management. The official docker image works fine, the only thing I needed to do was to add ruby gem local cache so it would not need to download all that mess over and over again (what a hell that is).
