⚡ Development

Adding a new topic

To create a new topic, add a new markdown file in source\_posts. For example, to create a new topic called "Marketing", create source\_posts\Marketing.md.

Adding data for a topic

For adding data to the "Marketing" topic, create a new YAML file in source\_data. For example, to create a data file for the "Marketing" topic, create source\_data\marketing.yml.

YAML data should be of the form -

- name: Marketing Product #1
  quadrant: Products
  ring: Hold
  isNew: true
  description: Insert description here
  opinion: Insert organization opinion here
- name: Marketing Paradigm #4
  quadrant: Paradigms
  ring: Assess
