Blog V2

Neptune's Arkestra V2!

The difference between this and V1 is the tech stack.

V1 Tech Stack

org file -> weblorg -> html -> deploy

A lot of help from embedded js snippets, plugins, etc

V2 Tech Stack

write mdx files -> build and deploy

The neatest part about this is that I can make react components and embed them within the Markdown. Here is an example of a blog post embedding a react component that renders the Black-Scholes-Merton model:

Black-Scholes-Merton Model

To do this previously would require building it, exporting to a static html file, and then embedding it! Now I just call the component, which is very exciting.

Old Posts

Old posts will be moved over slowly but surely. My goal is to use them to inform filling in functionality gaps in the current version. I will post the prior posts with their given date. I'm undecided as to whether I will make any changes to them. Some of the posts would really benefit from the increase in functionality afforded by this new setup.
