./gradlew build --console=plainThe output can be found in the build/dist directory.
./gradlew buildGuide --console=plain
The output can be found in the build/dist directory.
The easiest way to work locally is to generate the site and setup your Webserver to serve build/dist.
For example with MAMP:
You can also use Python to serve the directory:
python3 -m http.server 8080 --directory build/dist
Write blog posts in markdown at posts folder.
A post supports metadata at the beginning of the document. You can use it store information (title, description, publication date) about your blog posts.
Metadata must be separated from the rest of the document by three dashes.
You can use the metadata in the text by putting it in brackets adding a % sign.
A typical blog post will look like:

We had [previously](https://grails.io/post/142674392718/deploying-grails-3-to-wildfly-10) described how to deploy Grails 3.1 applications to WildFly 10, which is where all of the "cutting edge" work happens in the JBoss world.
The process to deploy Grails 3.1 applications to JBoss 6.4 EAP is largely similar, with some minor configuration differences.If you write often to Micronaut's blog, we recommend you to create a Text Expander snippet:
title tag is used as the window title, the card title, blog post main header and also in twitter cards.
Description metadata is used as HTML meta description tag, and in twitter cards.
Date is used to for publication date. It is used to order to blog posts. It is displayed in the UI and in the RSS feed.
Date can be expressed in MMM d, yyyy

To add tags just preffix them with #:
Example:
Tags: #angularWebinars on-demand recordings should be tagged with webinar
Release announcements should be tagged with release.
Check the list of tags and try to reuse them.
If your blog post, contains code samples add the following metadata:
---
...
..
.
CSS: [%url]/stylesheets/prism.css
JAVASCRIPT: [%url]/javascripts/prism.js
---
# [%title]
Use the video metadata to embed a Video.
Currently, the plugin supports youtube videos. Use a link which starts with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtjSqRZ_md4
