With content collections, Astro now has first party built in support for strongly typed content schema and Markdoc rendered content which is what Blogster was built for. So Blogster won't receive any updates in the future. I'm going to leave this as a reference for font load strategy, meta tags and a few other best practices for setting up a website.\n\n## Demo\n\nCheck out the demo for each theme.\n\n- [Demo: Sleek](https://blogster-sleek.netlify.app)\n- [Demo: Newspaper](https://blogster-newspaper.netlify.app)\n- [Demo: Bubblegum](https://blogster-bubblegum.netlify.app)\n- [Demo: Minimal](https://blogster-minimal.netlify.app)\n\n## Key Features\n\n- **Fast.** Fast by default.

Why Markdoc or Why not MDX?\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n        MDX is great but when you use MDX, your MDX content is stored as code within your `.md` files. Markdoc lets you build and use your own custom components (Eg. YouTube embed, Twitter embed, Carousel, etc) within your markdown files with a special syntax. Your content is stored as text without having to leak code (imports or JSX) into your `.md` files. You can build validations, type-safety and all sorts of customisations for your custom components with Markdoc. If you're still not convinced, hear this, you can pass Markdoc content as string (just like any other string) throughout your application, store it in local storage or send it as params over the network. IMHO, Markdoc based content authoring gives you the full flexibility of markdown without the limits of the markdown syntax.\n    \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n## Contributing\n\n- When you are using `cmd+shift+F` to search for references across the repo, remember to exclude `templates/` dir because templates are auto-generated using a script and only add noise in search results.\n- Whatever you're changing, you will mostly only need to change in `themes/` or `packages/shared`. The themes in `templates/` dir is auto-synced using a script so you don't have to make any change in the `templates/` dir.\n\n## License\n\nMIT © [Dinesh Pandiyan](https://github.com/flexdinesh)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsudo-self%2Fastro-blog","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsudo-self%2Fastro-blog","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsudo-self%2Fastro-blog/lists"}
