Start Using GitHub to Publish Articles on Hashnode

This is cool

Cool feature.♥️

Nice

Hi Girish,

I just published my first article on Hashnode with GitHub integration and it is quite helpful. I am proficient with Markdown and RestructuredText but have always struggled with sites like medium for tech writing.

There were a couple of issues I could not figure out while publishing through GitHub.

How to add images?

• It is not clear if the cover photo URL has to come from a public source. I ended up making my hashnode-articles repository public and then using the full URL of the image I placed in the repository in the cover metadata field. Is it not possible to use a relative path within the GITHUB repo for cover image?
• How to add images within the Markdown article? My attempt was to use the standard Markdown syntax

  ![caption](./image-path.png)
  

  This was displaying fine in the Markdown preview on GitHub but didn't work in the published article. Do I need to provide full URL for every image that I wish to include in the article?

I'm more intrigued to learn how Hashnode monetizes the blogging platform to earn not only enough revenue to host without GH and serve the content, but also enough to be hiring for numerous roles?

I don't see paid options let alone any enterprise packages for the platform, paid advertising/advertisements, partnering opportunities or other capabilities to enable business development.

how add to the suuport table of content via GitHub ?

aaaamazzziiingggg

Thanks for writing this post! I plan on trying this out! 😄
