Wallapatta

Wallapatta is like <<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown(Markdown)>>, but has a layout inspired by handouts of Edward R. Tufte^^1^^. >>> ^^1^^ <<http://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0000hB (Book design: advice and examples - edwardtufte.com)>> <<< <a class="github-button" href="https://github.com/vpj/wallapatta" data-icon="octicon-star" data-style="mega">Star</a> <script async defer id="github-bjs" src="https://buttons.github.io/buttons.js"></script> ##Introduction Wallapatta uses indentation to specify the hierarchy of content. ``` ###Heading 1 Introduction * Point one Description about point one ####Subtopic Subtopic content This belongs to Heading 1 >>> ###Heading 1 Introduction * Point one Description about point one ####Subtopic Subtopic content This belongs to Heading 1 Indentation is required for specifying content for components like lists, code blocks, special blocks, etc. It also helps while working with large documents because **code folding** can be used with Wallapatta. The hierarchy of content is important for **printing** as well- to indentify where to break pages. **Side notes** is another key feature of Wallapatta. You can have text, lists, links, HTML content, as well as images, in side notes. >>> <<< <a href="https://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-via="vpj" data-size="large">Tweet</a> <script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+'://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs');</script> --**Tweet** button in a side note Some of the sytaxes of Wallapatta are different from Markdown; for instance, ``<<`` and ``>>`` are used for links instead of ``[]()``. <<reference.html(Read the Wallapatta reference)>> for a details on the syntax. ##Get Started ###Chrome app Download the <<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wallapatta/nleponjjojkllonfamfjhebhadibjlip(Chrome App)>> to write documents in wallapatta.
