Can I use it even if I am not using git but rsync to upload to my own server?  
Thank you.

Just a reminder to fellow community members that there is some significant risk in installing unverified APKs in Android.

I’d personally strongly advise against installing the advertised app. It’s a rather commendable effort if it delivers only what it promises.

There are a lot of red flags: published in a new Github group, descriptive texts are roughly translated (or created?) with AI (why isn’t there an original chinese version of the website?), the email in the contact appears to belong to some other very recent account and not the apparent main contributor, everyone account contributing is anonymous and hasn’t been involved with the community here before that post…

Thank you for your response. What you said is entirely correct; downloading APK files does come with certain risks in terms of security. Additionally, the account I am using is a brand new one. This project is something I developed purely for personal use and it is not commercialized at this point, so I have not purchased a Google Developer account to release it officially. Therefore, if anyone wishes to use it, they must do so at their own risk and should ensure to scan the file for safety before installation

I used the standard Git protocol to synchronize the repository, so you can use any Git server (self-hosted or popular Git services), but rsync is not supported at this time.

HugoNest might be a better choice, especially when using AI to generate keywords. I really like it.

I don’t like AI-generated content polluting my blog, but I really enjoy having AI help me with reformatting and checking for typos.

I was considering writing a simple web UI to write new posts from my iPhone. I mean, “generate a new local `.md` file and `exec()` Hugo” sounds notably easier than sending a handful of Git requests that trigger a hard-to-maintain script (“hook”) that does exactly the same thing, FWIW.
