Work Collection

The `work` collections is found in `src/content/work`.

Working with the `work` collection:

``` 📁 /src/content/work └── 📄 apple.md └── 📄 facebook.md └── 📄 google.md └── 📄 mcdonalds.md ```

In the above example, four entries on the /work page will be generated.

`apple`, `facebook`, `google`, `mcdonalds`

All content must be preceded by required metadata in the markdown file in `yaml` format, and be enclosed by triple dashes. --- ---

```mdx --- company: "McDonalds" role: "French Fryer" dateStart: "01/01/2020" dateEnd: "11/27/2022" --- ```

Metadata fields

| Field       | Req | Type    | Remarks                                          | | :---------- | :-- | :------ | :----------------------------------------------- | | company     | Yes | string  | Company name.                                    | | role        | Yes | string  | Role at the company. Ex: Full stack developer.   | | dateStart   | Yes | string  | Date string that can be parsed to a date.        | | dateEnd     | Yes | string  | Date string that can be parsed to a date.        |

\* _Note: If you are still employed at company, for dateEnd you can enter Current,  Now or Present instead of a date._

All that's left to do is write your content under the metadata.

```mdx --- title: "My awesome project" description: "A description of my project." date: "Mar 22 2024" draft: false ---
