Commit on <2024-12-17 Tue>

Details

This commit was focused on getting the blog section ready. So far ive decided to go for a static approach, whereby the blogs are stored in a .json file and populated in an array. The ’slug’ property is found in:

the title of the file (blog)
the metadata of the blog
the metadata of the index.json

These three must be consistent

What to work on next:

the rendering of the content of the blogs
the github project population: match the blog page stylings.

Commit message:

“Worked on the blog page, did stylings and began to populate”

Commit on <2024-12-18 Wed>

Details

Decided to change the way the blog is rendered. Using a json index object to display the list (slug is importnant), then blog detail is displayed as a rendered HTML from a markdown file. The scss was changed as well:

"node_modules/prismjs/themes/prism-dark.css"

this loads the theme for the code blocks.

What to work on next:

the github project population: match the blog page stylings.

Get rid of all the hardcoded blogs, and begin first blog.

added new blog: prefrontal cortex and self discipline
added a estimated time to read

added tags with persistency. Redid the whole UI (theme)

What to work on next:

add a cv section

added quizzes and used firebase for storage

What to work on next:

rendering of images , spending more time on blogs and creating quizzes
