Bazel blog
This repository hosts the content of the Bazel blog, available at https://blog.bazel.build/
Writing a new blog post
Send a Pull Request adding a file to https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-blog/tree/master/_posts
using the following filename format: <year>-<month>-<day>-<title>.md This filename format
is required by the Jekyll processor.
Begin your post with the following lines:
---
layout: posts
title: <whatever>
authors:
- username1 # See _config.yml for the list of authors.
- username2
---
If you omit the layout, the blog post will not be formatted properly. If you omit the title, it won't have a title.
Write the body of your post below the "---". If you have headers in your post,
use H2 and smaller headers (in makedown H2 is denoted by ##).
