Writing in Markdown

This post is a living style guide. It exists so you can see exactly how each Markdown element looks in Auric — and copy/paste the syntax you need.

Headings

Use ## for section headings and ### for sub-sections. The # (h1) is reserved for the post title, set in the frontmatter.

A sub-section

Body text uses a comfortable measure and line height for long-form reading.

Text formatting

You can write bold, italic, and inline code. Links look like this and are underlined in gold.

Lists

An unordered list:

  • First item
  • Second item, a little longer to show how lines wrap inside a list
  • Third item

An ordered list:

  1. Do the thing
  2. Then the next thing
  3. Finally, ship it

Blockquote

Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works. — a useful reminder when building anything.

Code block

// Fenced code blocks are syntax-highlighted at build time.
export function greet(name) {
  return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}

Images

Drop images in public/blog/ and reference them with an absolute path. They get a consistent frame and lazy-loading automatically.


That covers the essentials. If it renders here, it renders in your posts.
