Deep Dive

Mar 1, 2025 #series

The opening part of a two-part series demonstrating subposts.

This is the parent post of a short series. It sets up the topic and links, via the series navigation, to its subposts. The goal here is to show how a folder with an index.md becomes a series parent while sibling files become subposts.

Why a series?

Some topics are too large for a single post. Breaking them into ordered parts keeps each piece focused and gives readers a natural place to pause.

What we’ll cover

We’ll start with the core idea in this post, then go deeper into the mechanics in part two. Each part stands on its own but reads better in order.

Prerequisites

You don’t need anything special to follow along. A basic familiarity with the blog’s markdown features from the guide post is more than enough.

Deep Dive: Part Two

Mar 2, 2025 #series

The concluding part of the deep dive series.

Welcome to part two. In the first post we framed the problem; here we get into the details and tie things together.

Digging into the mechanics

This is where the interesting work happens. We take the idea from part one and push on it until the edges show, then we handle those edges deliberately.

Trade-offs

Every approach costs something. The version described here favors clarity and predictability over raw flexibility, which is usually the right call for a blog example.

Wrapping up

That’s the series. If you read both parts in order, you should have a complete picture of the topic and enough context to adapt it to your own work.
