New Feature: Announcements Content

We support Announcements content in Computist, allowing users to easily create and manage time-sensitive announcements on their Astro-powered sites. We designed the announcement content type for any time-sensitive content, such as project updates, new curated collections, or community events.

As with a blog or other content in Computist, an announcement is simply a Markdown file with its own metadata and saved in the src/content/doodles folder.

After an announcement is created, it is automatically rendered in the index page based on its date metadatas: pubDate and endDate.

Here is an example:

To see all the announcements created for a site powered by Computist, visit the /doodles page. The example below shows the announcements page on computist.net:

In addition to this feature, we also fixed several bugs and made improvements to enhance the curation platform experience.
