Welcome to My Blog

This is a sample blog post to demonstrate how your new blog system works. With the structure we’ve set up, you can easily write new blog posts by creating markdown files in the _posts directory.

How to Create a New Blog Post

1. Create a new markdown file in the _posts directory with the naming format: YYYY-MM-DD-title-of-post.md
2. Add the front matter (the section at the top between --- lines) with layout, title, date, and excerpt
3. Write your post content in markdown format
4. The post will automatically appear in your blog page

Markdown Features

You can use all standard markdown features:

• Bold text and italic text
• Lists (like this one)
• Links
• Code blocks:

def hello_world():
    print("Hello, world!")

Images

You can include images from your media directory:

Final Thoughts

This blog system gives you a clean separation between your main website content and blog posts. It makes your site more maintainable and gives you a dedicated space for sharing your thoughts and updates.
