Formatting reference

Example post exercising every Markdown element the theme styles.

A second example post, kept mainly to check that the stylesheet handles every element a real article will use. Safe to delete.

Headings

Heading levels two through four are styled; a post should start at ## because the post title already occupies the <h1>.

Third level

Fourth level

Text

Regular paragraph text with bold, italic, inline code, strikethrough, and a link.

A blockquote, useful for pulling out a claim worth arguing with.

— someone, probably

Lists

Unordered:

  • First item
  • Second item
    • A nested item
  • Third item

Ordered:

  1. Understand the problem
  2. Write the smallest thing that could work
  3. Measure before optimizing

Code

Fenced blocks get syntax highlighting:

def fib(n: int) -> int:
    a, b = 0, 1
    for _ in range(n):
        a, b = b, a + b
    return a

A fence with no title= just shows its language:

kubectl -n blog rollout status deploy/blog --timeout=120s

Callouts

Two container directives, for the two things worth interrupting a paragraph for:

Table

Component Choice Why
Generator Astro Markdown in git, no database
Server nginx Static files, nothing to exploit
Transport Cloudflare Outbound-only tunnel, no open ports

Horizontal rule


That is the full set.
