Connect to WiFi using a QR code
Connect to wifi via a QR code Given more people can no come and visit us at home, they are also requesting access to our wifi. I know I could create an open guest network, and they could just connect to that, but to manage access and to keep it restricted to people we know using our bandwidth I have to keep telling people the passcode for the wifi.
We could write it down, and stick it to the fridge, but it also needs the SSID to be included.

Hugo Custom Domain
Custom Domain This step is how to use a custom domain name, instead of the URL that Azure provides. This is completely optional to do this step, and the Azure URL will work fine, however this step is more a vanity step to make the site easier to remember. The assumption with this step is that you already have bought a domain name.
The below steps are generic, as they will be different depending on who you bought the domain through, and who manages your DNS.
