Introducing YAML FrontMatter
YAML is a flexible, data-oriented language that is mostly used to write configuration files.
YAML FrontMatter is an optional section of YAML code on top of Markdown files to maintain metadata for a page and its contents.
The word Frontmatter comes from the term for the pages that precede the main text of a book, such as the title page and preface.
Profile Data in YAML Frontmatter
The profile cards you see on our explorers page! get their data from YAML frontmatter.
We've configured the website so that simply adding your profile data can render your profile card on the website!
