Usually, your images and any other static content does NOT go in the /_posts folder, but rather it goes, in the /assets folder. For images, this is usually under /assets/img

Then you can include the images in your post by referencing them via /assets/img/01.png

Of course, you can create any directory/folder structure you want under /assets/img and if you have any complexity in your site or any substantial number of images, you should probably do just that. I have 4 sub folders under /assets/img and dozens more under those folders as well.

What if I want to preview the markdown render result locally? The /assets/img would misleading the local markdown editor but correct for browser.

I may be wrong, but images from the _posts folder will not be processed by default. If you really want to use this folder for static files, you have to change your configuration according to the Jekyll documentation. However, since you are using a subfolders structure there, this may not be possible. You'll have to find out if this is possible without using some plugins or writing some code. Will leave a few extra links here: one, two, three.

If you're just not sure where to place image files in general, please follow defaults according to @steveng57 suggestion above.

Do I understand correctly that according to Jekyll logic it is necessary to place files like this?

• Store text of posts in _posts/PostName
• Store post images in /assets/img/PostName/

Yes, you can try it.
