## What is pencraft.space good for?

You may already be using a cloud storage space — like Yandex Disk, Google Drive, or Dropbox — to store and share files or folders. With pencraft.space, a shared plain text file can turn into a nicely formatted web-ready note with pictures, tables, and even mathematical formulae if you like. To achieve this, add some Markdown and TeX formatting to a public plain text file, and use its shareable public link to see it on pencraft.space.

## What is Markdown?

Markdown is a popular "easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format" (as described by its creator) that can be converted to a visually formatted HTML web document, while still remaining easily readable as an unprocessed plain text.

For more Markdown options, see for instance Markdown Guide.

## What is TeX?

TeX is a popular plain text format for scientific formulae. While most blogs, social media, and other online publishing platforms won't allow for insertion of human-readable formulae, pencraft.space will make your formulae shine.

 formula $$E_k = \frac{m v^2}{2}$$ variable $\Phi (x)$

## Custom attributes

To add custom attributes to a publication, put the following block at the very beginning of your file:

!
author: Author's Name
date: yyyy-mm-dd
email: author@example.com



This block and all attributes are optional.
