How to build your blog and news website

1. 1

   Describe the job

   Build a publication around articles, author details and a clear editorial review flow.

2. 2

   Review the first version

   Choose how the author records the article and how the editor reviews the next step.

3. 3

   Refine the views

   Ask First to adjust the fields and views for the people who will use the app.

4. 4

   Test before sharing

   Walk through the process with a sample record and check who owns the next action.

What to include in your blog and news website

• Keep the article in context

  Keep article, author, category, source claim, editor review and publication version together so the next person can understand the request or record.

• When the next step needs a decision

  An article revision changes a factual claim after approval. Reopen review for that version and preserve the previous published reference.

• Keep publication version visible

  Record the accepted article version and resolve unsupported claims before publication.

• Choose what each person needs

  Give the author a working view and the editor a review view. Keep article and author attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
