How to Create New Posts

To create a new blog post:

  1. Create a new .md file in the content/blog/ directory

  2. Name it with the format: YYYY-MM-DD-post-title.md

  3. Add frontmatter at the top (the content between --- lines)

  4. Write your content using Markdown

Required Frontmatter Fields

`yaml

title: "Your Post Title"

date: "2024-01-15"

summary: "Brief description of your post"

tags: ["Tag1", "Tag2", "Tag3"]

featured: true # or false - shows in featured section

hidden: false # or true - hides post from public display

readTime: "5 min read" # optional - will be calculated if not provided

`

Hidden Posts Feature

You can now create draft posts that won't be displayed publicly:

    1. Set hidden: true to hide a post from the blog page

    2. Set hidden: false (or omit the property) to show the post

    3. Hidden posts are perfect for:

- Drafts you're still working on

- Future posts you want to prepare in advance

- Private notes that shouldn't be public yet

That's it! Your post will automatically appear on the blog page (unless it's hidden).
