README does not really cover how to get started adding actual editable content to your blog posts, etc.

I dont know if this a bug or a weird design by fault but I can't seem to find a way to add image and text to articles upon creation. Why isn't this an option. I can't seem to find any documentation on this behavior. Hopefully im missing something, please help

The apostrophe-blog documentation assumes that:

• you know that apostrophe-blog posts are pieces
• you know that developers typically add their own schema fields to pieces
• you've read the apostrophe pieces documentation and already know how both pieces and pieces-pages work

That's a lot to assume, so I'll turn this into a documentation request ticket.

What you really need to know is here though:

https://docs.apostrophecms.org/core-concepts/reusable-content-pieces/reusable-content-with-pieces.html#creating-a-directory-of-people-with-pieces

You can add schema fields as you would to any piece type, including images, rich text, etc., and you can set up contextual editing on the blog post's "show page" in show.html as you would for any piece.

@bastianhilton it also might help to look at a fully working implementation of the blog module by looking at how the Open Museum project handles articles and article-pages https://github.com/apostrophecms/apostrophe-open-museum

I was looking at open museum but didn't see the apostrophecms blog module in app.js. are they using it or is it replaced with just pieces or something

If you look in app.js you will see several references to apostrophe-blog. It is being subclassed to create a new "articles" module, which makes it more convenient to create other non-interfering subclasses of the blog later if desired.
