Public contributions to fix site issues or minor corrections to posts are welcome.
Beyond that, only members of the Frenetic LLC team should be writing posts here, naturally.
In short: make a new file in _posts folder, named [year]-[month]-[day]-[title].md, and copy the header template from any other post and fill in the details.
If this is your first post, add yourself to _data/authors.yml
If you have images/assets, put them in assets/postmedia/(yourposttitle)/
When creating section headers, start at ## - don't use #.
See also https://chirpy.cotes.page/posts/write-a-new-post/ for more info about stuff to do in posts.
As we teach with all code work at Frenetic: the first thing you should do before getting started, is look through existing posts and how they work, and use them as a reference for how to do it yourself. If your new post doesn't resemble the method of doing things that the existing posts use, you better have a specific reason you made an intentional change!
Break your posts down into clear sections and sub-sections, with paragraphs within.
For informational posts, add key takeaways clearly separated from the broad details, such as at the end of a section. Ensure you have a conclusion/summary at the end or beginning of the post.
Section headers should be written in Title Case.
For deeper headers (#### or below), you might consider switching to a more informal format.
Use <span class="parens">( ... )</span> for small asides.
Use <span class="image_caption">...</span> for captions below an image.
