Schema Comparison: Posts vs Projects

The posts schema is nearly identical to the projects schema, with one key difference:
  • Posts include an optional canonical field for SEO purposes
  • Projects do not have a canonical field
Both share the same core fields: title, startDate, description, image, and tags.

​
Usage Notes

  • The slug field in frontmatter is used for routing but is not part of the schema validation
  • Dates must be in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD)
  • Images should be placed in the public/ directory and referenced with a leading slash
  • The canonical URL should be the full absolute URL including protocol (https://)
  • Tags are case-sensitive and will be displayed exactly as entered
  • The MDX body content can include any valid MDX, including components, images, and markdown
