Today was a productive step forward in building out the blog system on my portfolio site. Here’s a summary of what got done:

Blog System Enhancements

• Migrated blog posts to Markdown files inside /content/blog/
• Each post uses frontmatter for:
  • title
  • date
  • summary
• Converted previous JSX blog posts into Markdown format with full styling support.

---

Sorting and Display Logic

• Posts are now automatically sorted by date (newest first) using getAllPosts() in lib/markdown.ts
• Each post is pulled into the /v2/blog page dynamically
• Display includes:
  • Title
  • Summary
  • Link to full post (/v2/blog/[slug])

---

Git Workflow

• Learned how to:
  • git add, commit, and push changes to GitHub via VS Code
  • Confirm a push using git log --oneline
• Blog updates now follow a Git-based publishing workflow — just push a new .md file and you're live.

---

How I’ll Add Posts from Now On

• Drop a new .md file in /content/blog/
• Use the frontmatter format
• Push to GitHub
• That’s it — it shows up on the site automatically

Looking forward to adding more features like images, tags, and custom layouts — but this is a super solid base!
