This post is a living cheatsheet: it shows how each Markdown element looks in the template. Use it as a reference while you write, and delete it once you no longer need it.
Every post starts with a small block of data (the frontmatter) between lines of three dashes:
---
title: "My post"
description: "A one- or two-sentence summary."
date: 2026-01-20
lang: en
category: notes
tags: ["Markdown"]
---Headings
Use ## for sections and ### for subsections. The top level (#) is reserved for the title, so inside the text start at ##. Headings show up on their own in the article’s side table of contents.
Text and emphasis
You can make text bold, italic, or inline code to refer to a command or a file name. Links work too and, if you need it, you can strike something through.
Lists
Unordered lists are good for loose ideas:
- First point
- Second point, with a detail
- Third point
And ordered ones for steps that go in sequence:
- Write the file
- Fill in the frontmatter
- Publish
Code
Inline code goes between backticks, like pnpm dev. For longer blocks, use three backticks and name the language so it gets highlighted. Each block comes with a copy button:
pnpm install
pnpm devfunction greet(name) {
return `Hello, ${name}`;
}
console.log(greet("world"));Tables
Tables are handy for comparing things at a glance:
| Element | Syntax | What for? |
|---|---|---|
| Bold | **text** |
Emphasize an idea |
| Link | [text](url) |
Point to another page |
| Code | `code` |
Name a command or a file |
Quotes and images
Blockquotes highlight a sentence or a reference:
The best way to learn something is to write about it afterwards.
And images are inserted with a single line; they scale to the page width on their own:
That covers almost everything you’ll need. From here on, the rest is just writing.
