[[!template text="""then I moved to Jekyll, and then to Hugo,""" start="00:00:59.240" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""because migrating the formats was just a little clunky.""" start="00:01:31.120" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""So ultimately I spent some time thinking about the data flow""" start="00:01:35.160" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and where I would put things,""" start="00:01:38.200" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""this kind of pre-thinking,""" start="00:01:39.520" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""So I began exploring Org Mode via Org Roam,""" start="00:02:01.000" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""but I've ultimately switched from Org Roam""" start="00:02:04.480" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""to the simplified Denote package.""" start="00:02:07.560" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I didn't use a lot of the functionality""" start="00:02:10.640" video="mainVideo-writing" id="subtitle"]]
