Welcome to the template repository. These templates are the starting-point for Amnesty International Content.
Templates are made up of two sections: a metadata header and a Markdown formatted body.
Content in the templates (especially the header) is seperated into "chunks;" peices of content that can be quickly and easily recycled accross a wide range of platforms. As illustrated in the example below, from the "post" template, everything between the dashed --- lines is the post's metadata header. Everything after the dashed lines is the page content of the post:
