Markdown is a convenient and simple format to write in. However, it doesn’t always do everything we want (or do it in a nice way). Rather than adding raw HTML to our source files, Hugo allows us to use shortcodes. Shortcodes are small snippets that look like this
{{< _shortcodename parameters_ >}}
that Hugo renders using a predefined template.
Here are some shortcodes used by this theme.
