Sample markdown files used in CMS Part 1 YouTube tutorial

Elements

I’m just working through Ben’s very helpful Youtube tutorial - How to Set Up Elements CMS: Part 1.

During the course of the video (at 7:07), he uploaded some sample markdown files to work with while laying out the blog and setting up the CMS. In order that I (and maybe others) can follow along, would it be possible to post these markdown files and the project? This would be so helpful.

Here’s the entire project, including the markdown files: Download Elements CMS Part 1 Project

Enjoy :smiley:

Remove the type: remote value from the markdown frontmatter, and link to the images in your resources folder.

Original remote image:
