### What? This updates the `blog-starter` example to Next 14.1 App Router. ### Why? I checked out a new `blog-starter` project on Vercel and was surprised it was using the Pages Router. I believe the App Router is a better choice. ### How? I tried to keep the implementation logic as close to the original Pages `blog-starter`. --------- Co-authored-by: Sam Ko <sam@vercel.com> |

A statically generated blog example using Next.js, Markdown, and TypeScript
This is the existing blog-starter plus TypeScript.
This example showcases Next.js's Static Generation feature using Markdown files as the data source.
The blog posts are stored in /_posts as Markdown files with front matter support. Adding a new Markdown file in there will create a new blog post.
To create the blog posts we use remark and remark-html to convert the Markdown files into an HTML string, and then send it down as a prop to the page. The metadata of every post is handled by gray-matter and also sent in props to the page.
