There is a significant amount of subtle, yet precisely calibrated, styling to ensure
|
|
that your content is emphasized while still looking aesthetically pleasing.
|
|
|
|
All links are easy to [locate and discern](#), yet don't detract from the [harmony
|
|
of a paragraph](#). The _same_ goes for italics and __bold__ elements. Even the the strikeout
|
|
works if <del>for some reason you need to update your post</del>. For consistency's sake,
|
|
<ins>The same goes for insertions</ins>, of course.
|
|
|
|
### Code, with syntax highlighting
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of some ruby code with line anchors.
|
|
|
|
{% highlight ruby lineanchors %}
|
|
# The most awesome of classes
|
|
class Awesome < ActiveRecord::Base
|
|
include EvenMoreAwesome
|
|
|
|
validates_presence_of :something
|
|
validates :email, email_format: true
|
|
|
|
def initialize(email, name = nil)
|
|
self.email = email
|
|
self.name = name
|
|
self.favorite_number = 12
|
|
puts 'created awesomeness'
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
def email_format
|
|
email =~ /\S+@\S+\.\S+/
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
Here's some CSS:
|
|
|
|
{% highlight css %}
|
|
.foobar {
|
|
/* Named colors rule */
|
|
color: tomato;
|
|
}
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
Here's some JavaScript:
|
|
|
|
{% highlight js %}
|
|
var isPresent = require('is-present')
|
|
|
|
module.exports = function doStuff(things) {
|
|
if (isPresent(things)) {
|
|
doOtherStuff(things)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
Here's some HTML:
|
|
|
|
{% highlight html %}
|
|
<div class="m0 p0 bg-blue white">
|
|
<h3 class="h1">Hello, world!</h3>
|
|
</div>
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
|
|
|
# Headings!
|
|
|
|
They're responsive, and well-proportioned (in `padding`, `line-height`, `margin`, and `font-size`).
|
|
They also heavily rely on the awesome utility, [BASSCSS](http://basscss.com).
|
|
|
|
##### They draw the perfect amount of attention
|
|
|
|
This allows your content to have the proper informational and contextual hierarchy. Yay.
|
|
|
|
### There are lists, too
|
|
|
|
* Apples
|
|
* Oranges
|
|
* Potatoes
|
|
* Milk
|
|
|
|
1. Mow the lawn
|
|
2. Feed the dog
|
|
3. Dance
|
|
|
|
### Images look great, too
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__
|
|
|
|
|
|
### There are also pretty colors
|
|
|
|
Also the result of [BASSCSS](http://basscss.com), you can <span class="bg-dark-gray white">highlight</span> certain components
|
|
of a <span class="red">post</span> <span class="mid-gray">with</span> <span class="green">CSS</span> <span class="orange">classes</span>.
|
|
|
|
I don't recommend using blue, though. It looks like a <span class="blue">link</span>.
|
|
|
|
### Footnotes!
|
|
|
|
Markdown footnotes are supported, and they look great! Simply put e.g. `[^1]` where you want the footnote to appear,[^1] and then add
|
|
the reference at the end of your markdown.
|
|
|
|
### Stylish blockquotes included
|
|
|
|
You can use the markdown quote syntax, `>` for simple quotes.
|
|
|
|
> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse quis porta mauris.
|
|
|
|
However, you need to inject html if you'd like a citation footer. I will be working on a way to
|
|
hopefully sidestep this inconvenience.
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<footer><cite title="Antoine de Saint-Exupéry">Antoine de Saint-Exupéry</cite></footer>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Tables
|
|
|
|
Tables represent tabular data and can be built using markdown syntax. They are rendered responsively in Mixyll for a variety of screen widths.
|
|
|
|
Here's a simple example of a table:
|
|
|
|
| Quantity | Description | Price |
|
|
|----------+-------------+----------:|
|
|
| 2 | Orange | $0.99 |
|
|
| 1 | Pineapple | $2.99 |
|
|
| 4 | Banana | $0.39 |
|
|
|==========|=============|===========|
|
|
| | **Total** | **$6.14** |
|
|
|
|
A table must have a body of one or more rows, but can optionally also have a header or footer.
|
|
|
|
The cells in a column, including the header row cell, can either be aligned:
|
|
|
|
- left,
|
|
- right or
|
|
- center.
|
|
|
|
Most inline text formatting is available in table cells, block-level formatting are not.
|
|
|
|
|----------------+----------------------+------------------------+----------------------------------|
|
|
| Default header | Left header | Center header | Right header |
|
|
|----------------|:---------------------|:----------------------:|---------------------------------:|
|
|
| Default | Left | Center | Right |
|
|
| *Italic* | **Bold** | ***Bold italic*** | `monospace` |
|
|
| [link text](#) | ```code``` | ~~Strikeout~~ | <ins>Insertion<ins> |
|
|
| line<br/>break | "Smart quotes" | <mark>highlight</mark> | <span class="green">green</span> |
|
|
| Footnote[^2] | <sub>subscript</sub> | <sup>superscript</sup> | <span class="red">red</span> |
|
|
|================+======================+========================+==================================+
|
|
| Footer row |
|
|
|----------------+----------------------+------------------------+----------------------------------|
|
|
|
|

[^1]: Important information that may distract from the main text can go in footnotes.
|
|
|
|
[^2]: Footnotes will work in tables since they're just links.
