Welcome to the blog

This template ships every SEO primitive you'd otherwise wire by hand: canonical URLs, hreflang for every locale that has the post, OpenGraph + Twitter meta, JSON-LD with a single combined @graph (Organization + BlogPosting + BreadcrumbList), a sitemap that walks every locale, robots.txt, and an RSS feed.

What's included

• App Router pages that wrap MarkdownContent from @next-md-blog/core.
• Per-locale post folders under posts/{en,fr,es,de}.
• Per-post dynamic OG at /[lang]/blog/[slug]/opengraph-image.
• Auto-generated table of contents from your markdown headings.

Quick start

Edit site.config.ts to set your site name, URL, social handles, and analytics provider. Drop new posts into posts/{locale}/your-slug.md — they're indexed automatically.

Frontmatter

The frontmatter recognized by generateBlogPostMetadata is documented inline in the file. The fields that have the most SEO impact are title, description, date, updated, tags, image, and alternateLanguages.

Rich embeds

Paste a bare URL on its own line and it renders as a rich oEmbed — no shortcode, no plugin:

Known providers (YouTube, Vimeo, Spotify, …) embed inline; others fall back to a link card, and unrecognized URLs stay plain links.

What's next

Open a few posts, view source, and confirm:

1. Exactly one <script type="application/ld+json"> per page.
2. <link rel="canonical"> pointing at the absolute URL.
3. <link rel="alternate" hreflang="…"> for every locale that has a translation.

That's it — start writing.
