Making a note so we don't forget! @Jutanium @delucis

This PR withastro/docs#2616 will need us to update both the final and content collections branch here!

We've received a few pieces of feedback that the hamburger menu should be a button, in place of a div, in favour of better accessibility.

Steps:

1. Update the hamburger menu
2. Update the tutorial to match the new code

Hey! I'd actually love to use this as an basis for my blog. Unfortunately, if a license was never set, all rights are reserved to you and I am not allowed to use the code formally.

Would it be okay if you license it?

If you just want people to use it without being legally required to disclose this tutorial, CC0 or UNLICENSE would make sense.
Otherwise probably Apache2 oder MIT, GPL is most likely too restrictive for the community!

Image url in post-4.md:

This tutorial is outdated, and currently using v1 of Astro. Explore whether this can be updated to v2 (or the upcoming v3), or if it's best to keep this on v1 as it works for the scope of the content in the tutorial.

I ran the end project on Stackblitz it is also giving those weird flashes in dark mode.
Stackblitz

I also ran this on my local machine in Chrome and Firefox also.

Preview:

Possible Solution:
Adding the is:inline in the script tag of the ThemeIcon.astro

There is no html Tag in the about.astro but in the blog.astro and index.astro is the tag.
This is somehow inconsistent.

We are not going to add view transitions to this project, nor the tutorial itself.

BUT, we would like to ensure that the project will work if someone who takes it then wants to add View Transitions themselves.

So, once the project has been upgraded to v3.x, and once we are happy with the theme toggle and hamburger menu (which are the things that might have trouble with view transitions?), try adding it and see whether it can be successfully done.

Please report any issues you had doing so, or changes you needed to make to get it to work. We could eventually turn this into an "Add View Transitions to the Build a Blog Tutorial!" the same way we have done for content collections.

Missing Hamburger in BaseLayout.astro

Hi,

the DEMO img throws a 404

👋🏽

This PR: withastro/docs#3016 in the docs repo updates all astro.build/assets links to new docs.astro.build/assets links. The links/assets in the PR are temporary until dedicated assets can be made. Once the dedicated assets have been created all branches in this repo will need updates to their asset links to reflect the changes in the docs repo.

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to raise the issue so please let me know if there's somewhere better.

I'm a new Astro developer following along with your tutorial when I got to section 4 and came across the "Try it yourself" language:

Delete anything from each page that that page is no longer responsible for rendering, because it is being handled by the layout, including:

HTML elements
Components and their imports
CSS rules in a <style> tag (e.g.

in your About page)

<script> tags

The <h1> CSS rule is still present in these branches, and has no effect on the CSS of the site. Therefore, I think it should be removed from branches unit-5/start, unit-6/start, and complete.

I have a branch with this change based off unit-5/start, but I'm not sure how to contribute.

Thanks in advance!

It's been a while, and we received a comment.

Would love for someone to revisit the RSS code and verify that it's up to date!

This codebase should be updated to v3.0, then the tutorial "taken" again to catch any errors or anything that might need changing, both to the code, and then to the instructions in the tutorial itself.
