+How This How A Blog Works
+
+This text file is itself a blog post. It demonstrates exactly how to write one.
+
+The first line is the date and time. The second line is the title. After that, a blank line. Then the body. It really is that straightforward.
+
+Every post you add to the blog directory with a .txt or .text extension will be picked up automatically. New posts appear at the top. Old ones sink down. No databases, no admin panels, no headaches.
+
+If you want to include an attachment in your post, you can reference it like this: [[file: example-attachment.txt]]

The deployment is fully automated too. A script pulls the latest repo changes, regenerates manifests, and pushes everything to /var/www/html.

The blog runs off plain text files and sorts posts newest-first, which is exactly the kind of simplicity I love about self-hosting.
