By the end of this tutorial, you will have a custom version of the linked-blog-starter that deploys to Vercel

Fork the repository and get it to run locally

First, we want to fork the linked-blog-starter repo, then install and run it locally.

Note: Update https://github.com/matthewwong525/linked-blog-starter with your own repository link

After doing the installations, you can update the components as you wish.

Make changes to the forked repository

Here are the docs for Next.JS and a few things to know about:

• Update /next.config.js to update the redirects
• Use /components/misc/preview-link.tsx to add link previews to any text on hover
• The fleeting-notes-website repository is a fork with lots of good examples (including, post-list, comments, etc.)
• The /common_md/ directory is where the markdown files are stored in the common markdown format. Use obsidian-export to convert your notes to common markdown

Publish the repository and link it with an MD repository

1. Create and publish your forked md repository
2. Update the "BLOG_REPO" environment variable to point to your forked repo
3. OPTIONAL: Connect your Obsidian Vault with Github
