This is an example post to show how the blog works. You can delete this file once you have added your own posts.

How to add a new post

  1. Create a Markdown file in the _posts/ folder.
  2. Name it YYYY-MM-DD-a-short-title.md (the date drives the postโ€™s URL and ordering).
  3. Add the front matter block at the top โ€” copy the one at the top of this file as a starting point.
  4. Write your post below the front matter using regular Markdown.

Adding a photo

Drop an image into the /images folder and reference it in the front matter:

image: /images/my-photo.jpg
image_alt: "A short description of the photo"
image_caption: "An optional caption shown under the photo"

The photo appears at the top of the post and as the thumbnail on the blog listing page.

Formatting

You get everything Markdown offers โ€” bold, italic, links, lists, and code:

kubectl get pods -A

Pull-quotes and callouts look like this.

Happy writing! ๐ŸŽ‰
