Hello, Markdown

Green gradient placeholder cover art

This is a sample post that showcases what the blog can render. It exists so the layout, the typography and the footnotes can be verified end to end1.

What is supported

Most of what you would expect from GitHub-flavored Markdown:

  • Bold, italic, strikethrough and inline code
  • Links that follow the site theme
  • Ordered and unordered lists

Blockquotes are plain Markdown. They are styled with the page palette and need no special syntax.
