This is what a regular paragraph looks like. Text flows naturally, with enough line-height to breathe. You can write bold and italic inline, or mix them for emphasis.
Heading 2
Some text under a second-level heading. Good for major sections within a post.
Heading 3
Subheadings help organize longer pieces without fragmenting the reading flow.
Heading 4
Used sparingly. Anything deeper than this is usually a sign the structure needs rethinking.
Blockquotes
The purpose of a system is what it does.
— Stafford Beer
Longer quotes also work. The indentation and left border create a visual distinction from the body text, making it clear this voice is borrowed from somewhere else.
Lists
Unordered:
- First item
- Second item
- Nested item
- Another nested item
- Third item
Ordered:
- Start here
- Then here
- And finally here
Code
Inline code looks like const x = 42 within a sentence.
A fenced code block with syntax highlighting:
function greet(name) {
const message = `Hello, ${name}`
console.log(message)
return message
}
greet("world")def fibonacci(n):
if n <= 1:
return n
return fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2)
print([fibonacci(i) for i in range(10)])Table

Mixed example
A paragraph leading into a quote, then code:
When thinking about system design, it helps to remember:
Make it work, make it right, make it fast.
Start with something that runs:
gatsby develop --port 3000Then refine from there.
