Create a free personal website using Hugo and GitHub

Since the beginning of my time at ETH, I decided to create a personal website for myself. I did try so many options such as forking and modifying GitHub webpages, using the web development tools websites like Wix.com, etc. However, none of them offered the freedom and customization options I was looking for until I found out about blogdown package in R (in Rstudio in fact) that uses HUGO to build webpages. As a theme, then I decided to go with research.dev themes (formerly known as Wowchemy).
