I ended up borrowing heavily from Aaro's approach with a few variants for the OpenGraph image:
- When sharing the home page, the image includes the site description.
- When sharing a post, the image includes the post title.
- ... but if the post has a thumbnail listed in the front matter, that gets added to the corner of the `og:image`.
- ... but if the post has a thumbnail[^thumbnail] listed in the front matter, that gets added to the corner of the `og:image`.
[^thumbnail]: My current theme doesn't make use of the thumbnails, but a previous theme did so I've got a bunch of posts with thumbnails still assigned. And now I've got a use for them again!
I'm sure this could be further optimized by someone who knows what they're doing[^future]. In any case, here's what I did to get this working.

### Home page OG
### Aaro's OG image generation
[Aaro's code](https://aarol.dev/posts/hugo-og-image/) provides the base functionality for what I need:
```jinja-html
{{/* Generate opengraph image */}}
{{- if .IsPage -}}
{{ $base := resources.Get "og_base.png" }}
{{ $boldFont := resources.Get "/Inter-SemiBold.ttf"}}
{{ $mediumFont := resources.Get "/Inter-Medium.ttf"}}
{{ $img := $base.Filter (images.Text .Site.Title (dict
"color" "#ffffff"
"size" 52
"linespacing" 2
"x" 141
"y" 117
"font" $boldFont
))}}
{{ $img = $img.Filter (images.Text .Page.Title (dict
"color" "#ffffff"
"size" 64
"linespacing" 2
"x" 141
"y" 291
"font" $mediumFont
))}}
{{ $img = resources.Copy (path.Join .Page.RelPermalink "og.png") $img }}
<meta property="og:image" content="{{$img.Permalink}}">
<meta property="og:image:width" content="{{$img.Width}}" />
<meta property="og:image:height" content="{{$img.Height}}" />
<!-- Twitter metadata (used by other websites as well) -->
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />
<meta name="twitter:title" content="{{ .Title }}" />
<meta name="twitter:description" content="{{ with .Description }}{{ . }}{{ else }}{{if .IsPage}}{{ .Summary }}{{ else }}{{ with .Site.Params.description }}{{ . }}{{ end }}{{ end }}{{ end -}}"/>
<meta name="twitter:image" content="{{$img.Permalink}}" />
{{ end }}
```
The [`resources.Get`](https://gohugo.io/functions/resources/get/) bits import the image and font resources to make them available to the [`images.Text`](https://gohugo.io/functions/images/text/) functions, which add the site and page title texts to the image using the designated color, size, placement, and font.
The `resources.Copy` line moves the generated OG image into the post bundle directory and gives it a clean `og.png` name rather than the very-long randomly-generated name it would have by default.
And then the `<meta ... />` lines insert the generated image into the page's `<head>` block so it can be rendered when the link is shared on sites which support OpenGraph.
This is a great starting point for what I want to accomplish, but I'm going to make some changes in my `opengraph.html` partial.
### My tweaks
As I mentioned earlier, I want to have basically three recipes for baking my OG images: one for the homepage, one for standard posts, and one for posts with an associated thumbnail. They'll all use the same basic code, though, so I wanted to be sure that my setup didn't repeat itself too much.
```jinja-html
// torchlight! {"lineNumbers": true}
{{ $base := resources.Get "og_base.png" }} <!-- [tl! **:1] -->
{{ $font := resources.Get "/FiraMono-Regular.ttf" }}
<meta property="og:title" content="{{ .Title }}" /> <!-- [tl! collapse:4] -->
