Blogging with Github Pages, MkDocs, and Obsidian

I feel like a lot of tech people have tried blogging. Personally, I've tried a couple times now across multiple different services (Substack, Medium, etc.) and nothing has really stuck for longer than a couple weeks. For me the main problem was it took a lot of effort to open the site and deal with their, not quite markdown, document editor.

After finding and falling in love with Obsidianfor keeping track of personal notes and thoughts, I figured it would be fairly simple to also use it for blogging with just a simple Github action and using MkDocs.

I figured this would be a good first blog post since it's something other's could benefit from and it was all still fresh in my mind!
