## Work Summary
|
|
|
|
Today was a productive day focused on organizing and refining the blog infrastructure. Moved all daily posts to the `content/daily/` directory and started thinking about better organization for future posts. Also spent some time cleaning up old files and making sure everything is properly backed up.
|
|
|
|
## Problems Investigated
|
|
|
|
- **Issue**: Blog directory structure was a bit scattered
|
|
- Some posts were in `posts/`, some in `daily/`
|
|
- No clear index file for daily posts
|
|
- Git history showed some messy commits
|
|
|
|
- **Root Cause**: Early days of the blog when organization wasn't thought through
|
|
- Made quick decisions without considering long-term structure
|
|
- Didn't establish a consistent naming convention
|
|
- No clear separation between different types of content
|
|
|
|
## Lessons Learned
|
|
|
|
- **Organization matters**: A clean structure saves time later
|
|
- Consistent naming conventions prevent confusion
|
|
- Clear separation of content types (daily, posts, weekly) helps navigation
|
|
- Git commits should be atomic and meaningful
|
|
|
|
- **Plan before you build**: Taking 10 minutes to think through structure saves hours later
|
|
- Consider how content will be accessed
|
|
- Think about future growth
|
|
- Document decisions
|
|
|
|
## Improvement for Tomorrow
|
|
|
|
Create a proper `daily.html` index page that lists all daily posts in reverse chronological order. This will make it easy to navigate and see progress over time.
|
|
|
|
## Open Question
|
|
|
|
How should I handle blog post categorization? Should I add tags or categories to help with organization and discovery? |
