You may not ACTUALLY understand Content Collections…

10/10 content, never thought relations are viable in markdown

Thank you for this video, ive spent hours trying to figure out why my astro wasnt building images from the frontmatter, works now, cheers

do you know how use markdoc on astro ?

Thank you so much for this content. Well done. I know that you sing the praises of these content collections, but why am I having a tough time getting my head around multiple json files in a directory vs one json file? It seems to me for certain things, one file is easier to manage. This is really making me rethink content collections. I guess for one thing, without the content collections you'd lose that ability to reference other collections.

This course will be needed, quality explanations!
I'm currently converting an application from Next.js -> Astro and all of the different errors are killing me as there's no help to get from stack overflow or similar.
Difficulties of developing on the frontier frameworks i guess.
Do you know how to handle sub-folders/sub-paths for your content collections?
I have a "articles" folder in the content folder filled with .mdx files , and i want to have another sub-folder in it called "performance" (content/articles/performance/*.mdx) but when i try to create a file and navigate there (test.mdx) i get:
Expected "slug" to match "[^\/#\?]+?", but got "performance/test".
Any ideas?
Thanks for all the good content!

This was very helpful. I'm migrating from WordPress and have 500 posts so I'm using mongodb for the posts but I like this for things like author data. I can just reference the author number provided by wordpress and have all the data be consistent without the overhead of database calls. I had actually rigged up a js file to feed constants for that purpose because when I first got started learning Astro, js, typescript, etc. I was a bit too overwhelmed to incorporate collections but they make a lot of sense now. I haven't done any serious coding for about a decade so had some catching up to do. Thanks.

Hi .Can you give me the font of Vscode please

Content collections are so versatile. I wonder if in a big project it would be sustainable and could somehow replace database for static content. It offload the browser render time for a longer build time which seems a great alternative. I wonder if there is a tradeoff with having a lot of files generated at build time with SSG instead of using SSR. Maybe it will cost more to host I wonder.

what's going wrong when using ViewTransitions ?

Absolutely SSSOOO looking forward to your upcoming course 🥰

why were you in a hurry?
i hope paid course wont be made in a hurry.
or is this because Astro is fast moving, so everything has to be fast-paced?

god dammit bro. i had to check if i wasnt watching the video with multiplied speed. cognitive overload bop beep bupp pow SHHHHHHHHH. ##%&*($%(¨@$

Thanks Chris! How is your Astro course shaping up? Do you have an estimated release date?

It's brilliant and a very lightening tool! Will there be a video on such cms as keyStatic or Decap Cms?
Their miracle is that they immediately create md files in our project and push them to repo github.

The explanation that I needed. Thank you Chris!

(although, I'm tired of hearing "typesafety")
