How to write on your site

Write a new post

1. Open the _posts folder in GitHub → Add file → Create new file.
2. Name it like 2026-11-20-my-post-title.md (date first, then words with dashes).
3. Copy the top part (between the two --- lines) from an existing post, change the title, description and topic.
4. Write below it. Use the Preview tab to see how it looks. Commit changes. It’s live in about a minute.

Edit a page

Open about.md, projects.md, contact.md, journey.md or index.md → pencil icon → change the text → Commit. (Leave the lines between --- at the top as they are, except the title.)
