Built-in templates

Start with a strong foundation.

Each template knows the conventions of its kind of document. It carries the typography and structure, so a book reads like a book and a directory like a directory. The pages below are real output, compiled from each template's starter text.

Prose and publishing

A page of the article template: a centred title and author over single-column text

Article

A single-column paper in A4 or US Letter, with no chapters. The default for a loose folder of markdown.
