Hi Om, when we started the website I was making some research to see if we can make things in markdown, but seems markdown is very limited. It's great for the wiki and docs, but to make something more visual as our "public face" or "marketing face", I think is very limited.
There's no way to match the website pages with markdown. But the website is only an "entry point" for the visitors that will end in Github Wiki page, Github reference page, Github issues page, etc... And some of them are directly created and edited from GitHub. So I'm very happy. I think is important to have a quick system that gives an easy way to update the website and to get blog post and articles published (we have that with WP backend), and the same for Wiki, Reference and Docs (and we have that with GitHub) 2018-01-10 23:28 GMT+01:00 OmPrakash Muppirala <[email protected]>: > In a perfect world, we will let content editors provide content, patches > and PRs. > > There are wordpress plugins available that read markdown files from Github > urls.
