Example blog post

2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

This is an example blog post. Delete it once you have real posts.

Blog posts use the same date-ordered template as notes: sort_by = "date", so the newest post appears first.

Example entry

2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

This is an example library entry. Delete it once you have real entries.

extra.thumbnail is a path served from media/ (gitignored — see CLAUDE.md), not committed to the repo: drop an image at media/library/example-entry/thumbnail.jpg on the VPS and set thumbnail to /media/library/example-entry/thumbnail.jpg as above. Leave it unset (as here) and the entry just renders without one — no placeholder box. To pull one automatically from the link above instead of adding it by hand, run:

uv run scripts/fetch-thumbnail.py content/library/example-entry

(A bare filename like cover.jpg also works and is resolved as a colocated page-bundle image next to this index.md instead — fine for a one-off, but committed to git, unlike media/.)

extra.type becomes the "Book:", "Article:", "Video:", "Movie:" (etc.) prefix on the title. description doubles as the author/creator, shown in the meta line. Everything below the front matter is your own notes and comments about it, as normal Markdown.

Example note

2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

This is an example note. Delete it once you have real notes.

Notes use sort_by = "date", so the newest note appears first. Add tags in the [taxonomies] block above to group related notes.

Example project

2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

This is an example project page. Delete it once you have real projects.

Project and work pages use the wiki-style template: no post date is shown on the list page, just the title, description, and tags. The date field is still used for sort_by = "date" ordering.

Example trip

2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

This is an example travel entry. Delete it once you have real trip write-ups.

Trip photos add up fast, so put them in media/travel/example-entry/ (gitignored, served from /media/... — see CLAUDE.md) rather than in this folder. Reference them in the Markdown below the same way, e.g. ![a temple](/media/travel/example-entry/temple.jpg). Set extra.thumbnail above to one of those photos to show it on the homepage and the /travel/ list next to this entry — leave it unset and the entry just renders as text, same as an example library entry with no thumbnail.

More notes about the trip go here, with as many inline photos as you want.

Example work

2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

This is an example work / case-study page. Delete it once you have real entries.

Work pages use the same wiki-style template as projects: no post date is shown on the list page, just the title, description, and tags. The date field is still used for sort_by = "date" ordering.
