The Content Rendering Pipeline
How code, diagrams, and math flow from Markdown to the page on this site.

This post exists to exercise every rendering feature the site supports. Tech writing is set in Space Grotesk — a chunky geometric sans — with code in JetBrains Mono.
Syntax-highlighted code
Code blocks are highlighted at build time with Shiki, using the warm
rose-pine-dawn theme so they sit naturally on the sepia page.
type Pipeline<T> = (input: T) => T;
const compose =
<T,>(...fns: Pipeline<T>[]): Pipeline<T> =>
(input) =>
fns.reduce((acc, fn) => fn(acc), input);
Inline code like remarkMath and rehypeKatex is supported too.
Diagrams with Mermaid
Fenced ```mermaid blocks are converted to client-rendered diagrams, themed
to match the palette:
flowchart LR
MD[Markdown] --> R[remark plugins]
R --> H[rehype plugins]
H --> HTML[HTML]
HTML --> Page[Rendered page]
Math with KaTeX
Inline math such as renders via remark-math +
rehype-katex. Display math works as well:
That’s the whole pipeline — Markdown in, highlighted code, diagrams, and typeset math out.
