Front Matter is an essential Visual Studio Code extension that simplifies working and managing your markdown articles. We created the extension to support many static-site generators like Hugo, Jekyll, Hexo, NextJs, Gatsby, and more.
The extension brings Content Management System (CMS) capabilities straight within Visual Studio Code. For example, you can keep a list of the used tags, categories, create content, and so much more.
Our main extension features are:
- Page dashboard where you can get an overview of all your markdown pages. You can use it to search, filter, sort your contents.
- Site preview within Visual Studio Code
- SEO checks for title, description, and keywords
- Support for custom actions/scripts
- and many more
If you see something missing in your article creation flow, please feel free to reach out.

Version 2
In version v2 we released the re-designed sidebar panel with improved SEO support. This extension makes it the only extension to manage your Markdown pages for your static sites in Visual Studio Code.
