Creating new blog posts.

Open the contents/blog folder and create a new folder with the name you wish to see as the URL. Inside the folder create an index.md file and also include any files you wish to add.

The frontmatter should be of the below structure

date: 2019-06-29 <-- Date should be in the given format

banner: ./banner.jpg <-- Banner shown in the blog post

If you don't want the blog section, simply delete everything inside the contents/blog folder. (Do not delete the folder itself)

Creating new portfolio posts.
