This page is a living reference for the org markup phorge understands. It is itself an org file rendered by phorge, so what you see is what you get.1
Inline markup covers bold, italic, inline code, verbatim, underline, and strikethrough. Links come in three flavours: internal like the design essay, external like the org manual, and images (below).
Sections
Any sub-heading under a published heading becomes a prose section — this very paragraph lives under an ** Sections heading and renders as an <h2>.
Even deeper
Nesting continues down to <h6>, so long essays keep their structure.
Lists
Unordered, ordered, nested, tasks, and description lists all work:
- a bullet
- another, with children
- nested one
- nested two
- back to the top level
- first ordered item
- second ordered item
- a finished task
- a task still open
- Rust
- the language phorge is written in
- org-mode
- the source format it reads
Tables

Code
fn main() {
println!("phorge tags source blocks with the language");
}
plain example blocks render verbatim, no language
Quotes, verse, centering
The site should feel like warm paper meeting disciplined typography.
one centered line
Images
Reference an image with a file: link. Place the file under your org dir and phorge copies it into the site; a caption above a lone image makes a figure.

Raw HTML escape hatch
Sometimes you just need raw HTML.
