So it made a copy of what we had from chapter seven, and we're gonna start working on it from here Now. Quick admin note here.
0:14
I've changed this around a little bit. So that were now pulling the requirements about txt file which didn't exist.
0:20
Created one in and using that for their requirements.
0:23
I just find it, it'll be easier to have stuff managed, especially with tools like depend about and whatnot. So we're gonna do this, Maynard.
0:32
No major change, no functional change.
0:33
But we now have a requirements that takes t we're gonna use as we're gonna need to start adding yet still more libraries to this whole app.

Okay, so for this one, let's just enter some markdown content will just get this started so that we could actually turn it into something if we want it.
0:50
So we're over here. We're automatically logged in from our cookie. We're gonna go to the admin section, go to the pages.
0:55
We don't yet even have a slash HelpAge. Sorry. We can't find that page So let's go create it, though.
1:03
Out of page to be getting help with high P I your l is gonna be help in the contents of the page.
1:11
Well, here's where we write mark down So we just say something like this. So here are a few tips in and mark down.
1:19
If we want on ordered list, we just put a star. So do you have pip installed? Now we can also make stuff bowled by putting double stars.
1:31
We could make stuff look like code in line if we put these little back ticks. So that's like right above the tab button.
1:39
So here's a nice little bulleted list. And then if we want headers, we have each one's like this h twos, h threes.
1:46
I'm gonna go for H two because this is going to be the H one.
1:51
So we'll just dio you have pip installed and so on now actually wrote that whole thing out. So let's not, you know, diet the whole thing in.
1:59
I just want to talk a little bit about Mark down. So here we go. Here's our page. Awesome. Let's go get some help.
2:04
Yeah, that's exactly what I was hoping to build. It's beautiful, right? This is really an improvement. No, this is not an improvement.
2:12
Obviously, we can't just throw markdown into the page and have that work. We have to transform it.
2:18
So we're gonna talk about how we're gonna do that in the various options. We have to make that happen. Do we have the content? Now?
2:26
We just have to go over here and teach our site how to transform that over to what we want over to HTML.
