I have another deprecated theme component that uses

```plaintext
api.decorateWidget("post:after", helper => {
  const firstPost = helper.attrs.firstPost;

```

together with `return h("div.myimage", [`… to insert some HTML (an `href`) after the first post.

If I understand correctly, `api.decorateWidget` is also deprecated, but I can’t figure out how to do it with Glimmer. This method looks like what I need to determine if it’s the first post…

…but I can’t figure out what is the recommended method now to insert the HTML I need.
