I use Hugo too for https://apporchestra.com I have it in a GitLab repository with the continuous integration script configured to build and deploy it to Google app engine (configured as a static content so no paid instances are running) each time I push a commit.

Out of curiosity, may I ask why Google App Engine if the content is purely static. Surely there are better and simpler options like Github Pages. Wondering if there is a benefit to App Engine here that isn't quite obvious to me.

Yeah, I'm curious about the GAE aspect as well. Why have you chosen that over something like Netlify? Any particular shortcomings I'm missing?
