-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]({{ site.baseurl | uri_escape }}),
-yet don't detract from the
-[harmony of a paragraph]({{ site.baseurl | uri_escape }}).
-The _same_ goes for italics and __bold__ elements.
-Even the the strikeout works if
-<del>for some reason you need to update your post</del>.
-For consistency's sake,
-<ins>The same goes for insertions</ins>,
-of course.

-### Code, with syntax highlighting
-
-Here's an example of some ruby code with line anchors.
-
-```ruby
-# 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
-```
-
-Here's some CSS:
-
-```css
-.foobar {
-    /* Named colors rule */
-    color: tomato;
-}
-```
-
-Here's some JavaScript:
-
-```js
-var isPresent = require('is-present')
-
-module.exports = function doStuff(things) {
-    if (isPresent(things)) {
-        doOtherStuff(things)
-    }
-}
-```
-
-Here's some HTML:
-
-```html
-<div class="m0 p0 bg-blue white">
-    <h3 class="h1">Hello, world!</h3>
-</div>
-```
-
-# 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
-<span class="bg-dark-gray white">highlight</span>
-certain components of a
-<span class="red">post</span>
-<span class="mid-gray">with</span>
-<span class="green">CSS</span>
-<span class="orange">classes</span>.
-
-I don't recommend using blue, though. It looks like a
-<span class="blue">link</span>.
-
-### 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.
-
-<blockquote>
-    <p>Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.</p>
-    <footer><cite title="Antoine de Saint-Exupéry">Antoine de Saint-Exupéry</cite></footer>

-
-Happy writing.
