Checkout the markdown styleguide for examples on how to format things.
Blog posts need to be titled with a date prefix. This helps us keep the content nice and organized here in git.
Make sure to prefix post titles with the year, month and date in this format YYYY-MM-DD.
Example:
YYYY-MM-DD-blog-post-name.md 👉 2016-01-27-post-title-here.md
Here is a handy tool for slugifying blog post titles
Include the post metadata at the top:
---
title: 'My awesome post title'
description: 'This post is about awesome stuff!'
date: '2016-07-25'
thumbnail: 'http://url-to-thumbnail.jpg'
authors:
- FirstName LastName
---Below the post meta, add your markdown:
# Post Heading
This is an awesome paragraph!
## Post SubSection
[Link example](http://my-full-url-with-http-at-the-front.com)
* List item 1
* List item 2
* List item 3
To include code snippets in your post wrap them in ``` blocks with the name of the syntax used. For example, to syntax highlight javascript code wrap the content in ```js
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Integer vitae mauris arcu, eu pretium nisi. Praesent fringilla ornare ullamcorper.
```js
// code snippet with javascript syntax highlighting
console.log('JS code')
```
If you haven't created an author bio in the /authors folder. Go ahead and do that now.
The name of the file should be the same as the name field used in the blog post meta data. Format: FirstnameLastname (note the caps and no space!)
Example authors/DavidWells.json and DavidWells in the authors field below are the same name and capitalization.
---
layout: Post
title: 'David's Amazing Post'
authors:
- David Wells # pulls data from authors/DavidWells.json
