How to add a blogpost

pip install markdown2 pyyaml

1. Write the blogpost in markdown format and add it inside the posts folder. For example, posts/example.md. Make sure that all your latex format are inside $ or $$ for inline and block latex respectively.
2. Run python3 generate_post.py posts/example.md posts/output.html to generate a HTML file with proper latex formatting.
3. Duplicate the post_template.html file and rename it to your_title.html. Inside the file modify the <div class="post-title"> and <div class="post-date">.
4. Copy the content of output.html into the <div class="content"> class of your_title.html.
5. Add your post inside the <div class="article-list"> in index.html file for your new post following this format

<a href="posts/your_title.html" style="text-decoration: none; color: inherit;">
    <div>
        <span>TITLE</span>
        <span>yyyy-mm-dd</span>
    </div>
</a>

6. Double check the correctness of the newly added blogpost:
   • Check the links
   • Check the images (these are not automatically imported from HackMD)
   • Check the Latex formatting
7. Delete the output.html file and the original markdown file.
