## astro-erudite
![Stargazers]
[![License]](LICENSE)
astro-erudite is an opinionated, no-frills static blogging template built with [Astro](https://astro.build/), [Tailwind](https://tailwindcss.com/), and [shadcn/ui](https://ui.shadcn.com/). Extraordinarily loosely based off the [Astro Micro](https://astro-micro.vercel.app/) theme by [trevortylerlee](https://github.com/trevortylerlee).
To learn more about why this template exists, read [The State of Static Blogs in 2024](https://astro-erudite.vercel.app/blog/the-state-of-static-blogs), where I share my take on what constitutes a great blogging template and my goals while developing this one.

- [rehype-pretty-code](https://rehype-pretty.pages.dev/) with [Shiki](https://github.com/shikijs/shiki) for advanced code block styling, highlighting, and code block titles/captions.
- Blog post authoring using [MDX](https://mdxjs.com/) for component-style content, alongside $\LaTeX$ rendering using [KaTeX](https://katex.org/).
- Astro [View Transitions](https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/view-transitions/) in SPA mode for smooth, opt-in animations during route switching.
- SEO optimization with fine-grained control over metadata and [Open Graph](https://ogp.me/) tags for each post.
- [RSS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS) feeds and sitemap generation!
- Supports author profiles (with a dedicated authors page) and adding multiple authors per post.

## Adding Content
### Blog Posts
Add new blog posts as MDX files in the `src/content/blog/` directory. Use the following frontmatter structure:
```yml
---
title: 'Your Post Title'
description: 'A brief description of your post!'
date: 2024-01-01
tags: ['tag1', 'tag2']
image: './image.png'
authors: ['author1', 'author2']
draft: false
---
```
The blog post schema is defined as follows:
| Field | Type (Zod) | Requirements | Required |
| ------------- | --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- |
| `title` | `string` | Must be ≤60 characters. | Yes |
| `description` | `string` | Must be ≤155 characters. | Yes |
| `date` | `coerce.date()` | Must be in `YYYY-MM-DD` format. | Yes |
| `image` | `image()` | Must be exactly 1200px × 630px. | Optional |
| `tags` | `string[]` | Preferably use kebab-case for these. | Optional |
| `authors` | `string[]` | If the author has a profile, use the slug associated with their Markdown file in `src/content/authors/` (e.g. if their file is named `jane-doe.md`, use `jane-doe` in the array). | Optional |
| `draft` | `boolean` | Defaults to `false` if not provided. | Optional |
### Authors
Add author information in `src/content/authors/` as Markdown files. A file named `[author-name].md` can be associated with a blog post if `"author-name"` (the slug) is added to the `authors` field:
```yml
---
name: 'enscribe'
pronouns: 'he/him'
avatar: 'https://gravatar.com/avatar/9bfdc4ec972793cf05cb91efce5f4aaaec2a0da1bf4ec34dad0913f1d845faf6.webp?size=256'
bio: 'd(-_-)b'
website: 'https://enscribe.dev'
twitter: 'https://twitter.com/enscry'
github: 'https://github.com/jktrn'
mail: '[email protected]'
---
```
The author schema is defined as follows:
| Field | Type (Zod) | Requirements | Required |
| ---------- | ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- |
| `name` | `string` | n/a | Yes |
| `pronouns` | `string` | n/a | Optional |
| `avatar` | `string.url()` | Must be a valid URL. Preferably use [Gravatar](https://en.gravatar.com/site/implement/images/) with the `?size=256` size parameter. | Yes |
| `bio` | `string` | n/a | Optional |

You can add as many social media links as you want, as long as you adjust the schema! Make sure you also support the new field in the `src/components/SocialIcons.astro` component.

```yml
---
