Behold

A man!

that's a joke about Diogenes

This one post is using the webc-based layout chain. The goal is to create feature parity with the other pages on the site, then gradually pull out the nunjucks.

postlist component

including a webc component to confirm that it works

TODO

• make that list be in correct order
• post list feature wants:
  • number of posts (default 3?)
  • show correct dates on post list
  • filter by tag (default to posts?)
  • posts before and after a certain post (default to page if in the collection?)
• post date/time feature:
  • take prop of ISO date string (generalize for current page or list of posts)
• header navigation
• blog post next/previous links
  • sort of, I dropped them in a webc wrapper
• how am I intended to access/call global filters from webC?
  • works fine from webc:type="js", not as I expected within webc:setup
  • my problem or upstream bug with this.page.lang and getLocaleCollectionItem? probably me.
• date formats
• how tags work
• optionally pull some localization and other options from metadata
• package up changes

I'm cracking away at this on the side. I'm motivated by the challenge and also I have other responsibilities.
