Hello, world

This is the first post, mostly so the site isn’t empty. It doubles as a note-to-self on how everything works.

Writing

Every piece is a markdown file with a little frontmatter at the top:

---
title: On keeping a quiet room
date: 2026-09-10
description: One line for lists and search.   # optional
tags: [attention, writing]                    # optional
draft: true                                   # optional — hides it from the built site
---

Body goes here. Regular markdown.

Files live in src/content/essays/, src/content/poems/, or src/content/blog/. The filename becomes the URL, so on-keeping-a-quiet-room.md becomes /essays/on-keeping-a-quiet-room.

There’s a shortcut for starting a new piece:

npm run new essay "On keeping a quiet room"

That creates the file with today’s date and opens the frontmatter for you to fill in. Works with essay, poem, or post.
