Hugo’s resources.Get only finds files in assets/, not static/.
I kept my assets/resources in static/ and didn’t get why I always had to write /absolute/urls and use hope as a strategy,

The regex | (or) operator splits the pattern left or right unless explicitly grouped.
Group it using (pattern) if you need to use the match later,
or as a non-capturing group (?:pattern) if you do it for clarity.
I used to think there was some magic rule about how | decided where to split,

That’s because | has the lowest precedence so all other operations happen first.

And that exact problem in a real-world example, to find if a page is linking to another, both relative or full URL:
