Use case
Turn a Markdown article into a clean PDF
When you want a long article saved for offline reading or an essay turned into a hand-out, the Blog Post template gives you editorial typography without the chrome of a website.

Why no cover page
A blog post starts with the title and the lede, not with a cover. The template defaults to no cover, no ToC, and no page numbers - the PDF reads like a printed article instead of a corporate report.
Pull-quotes that look like pull-quotes
Use a Markdown blockquote (> ...) for pull-quotes. Editorial designs render blockquotes with an accent on the left border and italicised body - the one element of a blog post that benefits from a strong visual treatment.
