## Initial Setup
To setup your site's blog, start by creating a `blog` folder within your repo's `website` directory.
Then, add a header link to your blog within `siteConfig.js`:
```
headerLinks: [
...
{href: '/blog', label: 'Blog'},
...
]
```
## Adding blog posts
To publish in the blog, create a file within the blog folder with a formatted name of `YYYY-MM-DD-My-Blog-Post-Title.md`. The post date is extracted from the file name.
For example, we will create the following file `website/blog/2017-08-18-Introducing-Docusaurus.md`:
