This is a sample entry that demonstrates every layout component available to you. When you write a real entry, just use the pieces you need and delete the rest. The drop cap on this first paragraph happens automatically.
Regular paragraphs flow naturally. The column width is set to a comfortable reading measure so even long entries stay easy on the eyes. Write as much or as little as you want.
Section Headings
Use h2 for major sections within an entry. These are Playfair Display in cream. Use h3 for subsections — they appear in gold.
A Subsection
This is what a subsection looks like. Useful when an entry covers multiple topics or locations.
"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." — Marcel Proust
This paragraph demonstrates how text wraps around a sidebar on desktop. The sidebar floats right and the prose flows naturally beside it. On mobile, the sidebar drops to full width. Use sidebars for practical tips, historical context, or fun asides that complement the main narrative.
Add another paragraph and the text continues to wrap. Once the sidebar ends, the text returns to full width. This gives you that textbook feel without any JavaScript or complex layout logic.
Historical Note: The Château de Tours was built in the 11th century and served as a royal residence before being converted to a military barracks during the Revolution. Today it houses the Centre de Création Contemporaine Olivier Debré.
A view from the banks of the Loire. The cathedral spire is visible in the distance.
Full-bleed images break out of the article column for panoramic or dramatic shots.
Two-up photo grid — great for before/after or side-by-side comparisons.
Three-up grid — works well for a series of related images.
A Table
Tables are styled for readability — gold headers, subtle row hover, clean borders.
| Place | What | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| Le Zinc | Bistro near the river | Outstanding rillettes |
| Marché de Tours | Covered market | Go early, bring cash |
| Guinguette | Riverside bar | Best sunset in town |
Links
Links within entries get a subtle underline treatment that intensifies on hover. Use them to reference restaurants, landmarks, articles, or anything you want your readers to explore.
That's the full toolkit. Copy this file, delete the components you don't need, and start writing.
