Rebuilding Unfold on Astro Erudite
How the site moved from Astro Paper to Astro Erudite, why the frontmatter changed, and how Pages CMS now tracks the schema.
1. Why the Switch
I moved this site from Astro Paper to Astro Erudite. Paper was fine, but the layouts and type did not match how I write. Erudite gives me tighter pages and built-in subposts. I also aligned tokens so the blog and Quartz feel consistent.
2. Front Matter
I kept only what I use.
- Required:
title,description,date,tags. - Add
authorswhen the byline should link to an author profile. - For series:
orderkeeps subposts in sequence. Put child posts inside the parent post folder.
3. Pages CMS
The editor matches the schema and handles uploads and scheduling. When a post belongs to a series, adding a parent nests it automatically.
