Blog in a Matrix

New blog site using Astro.

Workflow

Articles are written in markdown or MDX (I am using Joplin) then exported to /src/content/blog. The site can render $\KaTeX$ and Mermaid content.

Install dependencies:

pnpm install

Start a development server using the following command:

pnpm dev --open --host

The site should be now accessible at http://localhost:4321/. A specific port can be specified using --port flag.

Build deployable site:

pnpm exec playwright install
pnpm exec playwright install-deps # or you can manually install the dependencies
pnpm astro build

Built site can now be found at /dist.
