You’ll find this post in your _posts directory. Go ahead and edit it and re-build the site to see your changes. You can rebuild the site in many different ways, but the most common way is to run jekyll serve, which launches a web server and auto-regenerates your site when a file is updated.

To add new posts, simply add a file in the _posts directory that follows the convention YYYY-MM-DD-name-of-post.ext and includes the necessary front matter. Take a look at the source for this post to get an idea about how it works.

My First Blog Post

Published on: 2022-07-01

Welcome to my new blog about learning Astro! Here, I will share my learning journey as I build a new website.

What I’ve accomplished

  1. Installing Astro: First, I created a new Astro project and set up my online accounts.

  2. Making Pages: I then learned how to make pages by creating new .astro files and placing them in the src/pages/ folder.

  3. Making Blog Posts: This is my first blog post! I now have Astro pages and Markdown posts!

What’s next

I will finish the Astro tutorial, and then keep adding more posts. Watch this space for more to come.
