Arcane: League of Legends is the surprise hit of the season and season 2 has just been confirmed.

Don’t let the fact that it’s based off the game deter you. Go in blind. You will not regret it.

Steps to write a new static micro post:

yarn newPost micro
# Edit index.md in Caret
yarn start # Verify
git add .
git commit -m "new micro post"
git push

Doesn’t seem too bad for now. I think I’m going to start a new app that allows me to do all those things from a single form in the menu bar. The more I can treat the entire process as atomic, the more I think I’ll use it.

Sidenote: I’m using this post to debug my netlify cms configuration
