Content Management

Adding Articles

Create new files in _posts/ with the format YYYY-MM-DD-title.md and include proper front matter.

Adding People

Create new files in _people/ with appropriate front matter including role, period, and social links.

Adding Videos

Create new files in _videos/ with front matter including episode number, date, YouTube ID, and guest information.

Images

All images remain in the images/ directory with the same structure. Use Jekyll's relative_url filter for proper path resolution:

![Description]({{ '/images/path/to/image.jpg' | relative_url }})
