+
+There is a significant amount of subtle, yet precisely calibrated, styling to ensure that your content is emphasized while still looking aesthetically pleasing.
+
+All links are easy to [locate and discern](/), yet don't detract from the [harmony of a paragraph](/).
+The _same_ goes for italics and __bold__ elements.
+Even the the strikeout works if for some reason you need to update your post.
+For consistency's sake, The same goes for insertions, of course.
+
+### Code, with syntax highlighting
+
+Here's an example of some ruby code with line anchors.
+
+{% highlight ruby lineanchors %}
+ # The most awesome of classes
+ class Awesome < ActiveRecord::Base
+ include EvenMoreAwesome
+
+ validates_presence_of :something
+ validates :email, email_format: true
+
+ def initialize(email, name = nil)
+ self.email = email
+ self.name = name
+ self.favorite_number = 12
+ puts 'created awesomeness'
+ end
+
+ def email_format
+ email =~ /\S+@\S+\.\S+/
+ end
+ end
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Here's some CSS:
+
+{% highlight css %}
+ .foobar {
+ /* Named colors rule */
+ color: tomato;
+ }
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Here's some JavaScript:
+
+{% highlight js %}
+ var isPresent = require('is-present')
+
+ module.exports = function doStuff(things) {
+ if (isPresent(things)) {
+ doOtherStuff(things)
+ }
+ }
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Here's some HTML:
+
+{% highlight html %}
+
+
Hello, world!
+
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+# Headings!
+
+They're responsive, and well-proportioned (in `padding`, `line-height`, `margin`, and `font-size`).
+They also heavily rely on the awesome utility, [BASSCSS](http://www.basscss.com/).
+
+##### They draw the perfect amount of attention
+
+This allows your content to have the proper informational and contextual hierarchy.
+Yay.
+
+### There are lists, too
+
+* Apples
+* Oranges
+* Potatoes
+* Milk
+
+1. Mow the lawn
+2. Feed the dog
+3. Dance
+
+### Images look great, too
+
+
+
+### There are also pretty colors
+
+Also the result of
+[BASSCSS](http://www.basscss.com/),
+you can
+highlight
+certain components of a
+post
+with
+CSS
+classes.
+
+I don't recommend using blue, though. It looks like a
+link.
+
+### Footnotes!
+
+Markdown footnotes are supported, and they look great!
+Simply put e.g. `[^1]` where you want the footnote to appear,[^1] and then add the reference at the end of your markdown.
+
+### Stylish blockquotes included
+
+You can use the markdown quote syntax, `>` for simple quotes.
+
+> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
+Suspendisse quis porta mauris.
+
+However, you need to inject html if you'd like a citation footer.
+I will be working on a way to hopefully sidestep this inconvenience.
+
+
+ Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
+
+
+
+### There's more being added all the time
+
+Checkout the
+[Github repository](https://github.com/johnotander/pixyll)
+to request, or add, features.
+
+Happy writing.
