Adding a talk

Append an entry to src/_data/talks.json:

{
  "title": "What I said",
  "venue": "Conference Name",
  "date": "2026-05-17",
  "links": [
    { "label": "slides", "url": "https://..." }
  ]
}

Common link labels: slides, video, notes, tweet, event, writeup.

Adding a writing

• External (hosted elsewhere): set external. Shows ↗ host indicator.
• Internal (hosted here): set slug, then write the post markdown at src/writing/posts/<slug>.md with title + date front-matter.

Each entry must have exactly one of external or slug — the build will fail loudly if both or neither are set.

Adding a quote

Append to src/_data/quotes.json. Required: text, source. Optional: year.

Deploy

Push to develop. The GitHub Actions workflow builds and publishes to the gh-pages branch; GitHub serves it at https://anirudha.co.
