Some things are better shown than explained. The following is a very basic example of a content file written in [Markdown](https://help.github.com/articles/github-flavored-markdown/):
**mysite/content/project/nitro.md → http://mysite.com/project/nitro.html**
With TOML front matter:
```markdown
+++
date = "2013-06-21T11:27:27-04:00"
title = "Nitro: A quick and simple profiler for Go"
description = "Nitro is a simple profiler for your Golang applications"
tags = [ "Development", "Go", "profiling" ]
topics = [ "Development", "Go" ]
slug = "nitro"
project_url = "https://github.com/spf13/nitro"

# Nitro
Quick and easy performance analyzer library for [Go](http://golang.org/).
## Overview
Nitro is a quick and easy performance analyzer library for Go.
It is useful for comparing A/B against different drafts of functions
or different functions.
## Implementing Nitro
Using Nitro is simple. First, use `go get` to install the latest version
of the library.
$ go get github.com/spf13/nitro
Next, include nitro in your application.
```
You may also use the equivalent YAML front matter:
```markdown
---
date: "2013-06-21T11:27:27-04:00"
title: "Nitro: A quick and simple profiler for Go"
description: "Nitro is a simple profiler for your Go lang applications"
tags: [ "Development", "Go", "profiling" ]
topics: [ "Development", "Go" ]
slug: "nitro"
project_url: "https://github.com/spf13/nitro"
---
```
`nitro.md` would be rendered as follows:
