VS Code Editor Snippets

Yore ships two VS Code snippet files that generate shortcode syntax from a short prefix, so you do not have to type parameter names from memory. To install, copy the .code-snippets files into your site's .vscode/ directory.

Description vs. Summary

description and summary are similar in function: both can be set in front matter, and both convey a short synopsis of the content. The difference is that description is never generated automatically, while summary, if left unset, is auto-generated by Hugo.

Yore does not distinguish between the two for metadata purposes. All metadata output is based on description, falling back to summary only when description is not set. In other words, you should always set description rather than relying on summary.

Auto-Generated Summaries Ignore summaryLength

This happens because Hugo's automatic summary generation preserves paragraph boundaries rather than truncating mid-paragraph. See Automatic summaries do not follow summaryLength for details.
