I wanted to reimplement seo features on the site for a few reasons.
There were some bugs with the plugin I was using & I also wanted to remove unused tags for social media as opengraph seems to be the standard.

Everything is implemented using nunjucks templates & metadata.js instead of using a plugin.

SEO Features #

Core tags take data set in src/_data/metadata.js

• page number in title on pagination
• use excerpt from post for description if exists
• set og:type to website/article depending on page
• use canonical link for og:url
