Description
We currently use a custom html component in our markdown blog post files to curate content for the users. This is difficult to maintain as our styles are baked into the blog posts, and the content (title, description, etc.) are duplicated.
We can instead put a reference to a page slug in the blog post frontmatter, and using that, pull the related data out of the graph.

Research direction
Start with the linked blog post at src/pages/blog/2021-18-02-there-and-back-again-testing-and-upgrades.md, especially its related-article section and frontmatter. Trace how the site reads blog content and pulls data from the graph. Done means related articles use page-slug references and no longer duplicate titles, descriptions, or styles in each post.
