Yes, on one hand, it might help someone else learn a trick or an approach. Yet I think there is more- in the retelling of the making, I get to reflect more closely on what I did, how I went about it.

This looks like an interesting link. My site uses the logo set in the customiser for twitter cards and the like but I’d really like to have different images for different categories or post kinds.
