[Live Coding] Zola, a Static Site Generator. Migrating my blog & reviewing Zola's source code.

We started exploring Rust ecosystem by migrating my blog to Zola from Jekyll. In ~1.5 hours I got a working blog and migrated my posts and images, added basic styling & configured syntax highlighting, without previously using Zola or reading its docs.

After that, I did a mini-review of Zola's source code, exploring how it manages command line interface, serving, rendering, and storing thing. I also checked how we can add a new syntax highlighting theme.
