Markdown and Frontmatter — A Perfect Pair
2026-06-27 CAX Team #markdown #frontmatter #content

CAX SSG uses Markdown for content and YAML frontmatter for metadata. This separation keeps your content clean and your data organized. Define titles, descriptions, tags, layouts, and custom variables — all right at the top of your markdown files.

Frontmatter variables are accessible in templates via {{ variable }} syntax.
