Yes — Images and GIFs Just Work

Short answer to a common question: yes. You can embed images and animated GIFs directly in any post, with a single line of Markdown.

A photo

Here’s an image, added with one line — ![caption](/blog/sample-photo.jpg):

Any image you drop into the media folder can be placed like that, anywhere in the post.

An animated GIF

GIFs are just images, so the exact same syntax works — and they animate on their own:

That blue block is sliding because it’s a real animated GIF, not a video. Drop a .gif in, reference it, done.

Rule of thumb

• Photos / screenshots: any .jpg, .png, or .webp.
• Animations: any .gif (or animated .webp).
• Keep them in the site’s media folder and reference them by name.

No plugins, no special setup — it’s built in.
