Typography Test and Examples

This post is a full length post to test typographical elements. It will show every common markdown element, custom elements specific to the theme, and potential elements used by others. Let’s start with Headers.

You can even make blockquotes large by adding a .large class to your blockquote html. And it works with references as well!Yes, it does!

Let’s talk about code. You can have inline code or you can have code blocks:

<div>
<p>This is some basic HTML demonstrated in a code block.</p>
</div>

This is a paragraph with a note class.

This is a paragraph with an alert class.

Row 2, Col 1 Row 2, Col 2 Row 2, Col 3
Row 3, Col 1 Row 3, Col 2 Row 3, Col 3
Row 4, Col 1 Row 4, Col 2 Row 4, Col 3
