Silly question about Markless: is there a way to create some kind of "block" of text? I'd like to use it to make a two-column design, but inspecting the emitted HTML reveals that a header and the text under it don't share any common parent.

Ideally the output would look like <article><h2>This article has a name!</h2><p>It has text too!</p></article>

Actually, just making each article/report its own document would be easier to manage. Never mind.

Again, never mind, I decided the two-column thing was bogus after messing with CSS flexbox for a while.

I'll use separate files for each article instead, which is more manageable for this case too.

But I think if I did that I'd move too much into the really complex realm of layouting

But it's very unlikely the school newsletter will move from Adobe Spark, since they --are dumb fucks that will explode if they see a plain-text editor-- paid for it presumably.

I'll probably go to the meeting on Thursday, and complain at least that it takes five minutes to load at school cause of all the JS and an obnoxious loading screen which stops you from reading anything while it loads.

OTOH, it's just a sadder-than-usual newsletter/newspaper, which also suffers from very bad design.

Here they like giving students silly names like "house captain", and have student-run papers and clubs and stuff.

Not that that's a bad thing, but it's all quite empty as all the actually interesting stuff dies off.

Well, there's typically student groups for each department that handle things like student complaints, organising student events, and keeping track of exam collections

Shinmera: Hey, trying the linux version of Portacle, but something went wrong in the latest build.
