Markdown feature lab

This entry exists to exercise the Markdown features the site should support without needing custom HTML in normal writing.

Inline formatting

You can mix strong text, emphasis, strikethrough, inline code, and ordinary links inside a normal paragraph.¹

You can also mention shortcuts like Esc and Enter directly in the prose.

Lists and task lists

• unordered lists
• nested items
  • can still be used
  • without breaking the rhythm

1. ordered lists work too
2. and should stay readable
3. even when they run long

• content collections are working
• active-item selection is working
• final content copy still needs to be written

Table

Element	Status	Notes
Paragraphs	Good	The default reading flow is stable
Tables	Needs styling	Width and borders matter
Code blocks	Good	Mono treatment already fits the site
Mermaid	Added	Requires client-side rendering

Blockquote

A good writing interface should disappear just enough to let the text become the event.

Code blocks

const sections = ['writings', 'thoughts', 'about'];

export function activeLabel(index: number) {
  return sections[index] ?? sections[0];
}

npm run build
