Content rendering and frontend display mechanism

Understood the power of Markdown syntax, next is how the content is presented on the website front end.When you enable the Markdown editor in the AnQiCMS background, the system will automatically convert it to standard HTML after content publishing, so that it can be displayed normally in the browser.This is a seamless process, usually requiring no manual intervention.

However, for dynamic rendering extensions such as MathJax mathematical formulas and Mermaid charts, they need to rely on front-end JavaScript libraries to complete the final display.Therefore, merely entering the corresponding syntax in the editor is not enough; you also need to make simple configurations in your website template files and include the CDN resources of these external libraries.<script>Tags added to the template.<head>or<body>Area. If these scripts fail to load correctly, the formulas and charts will not display properly, and you may only see the original text code.

It is worth noting that AnQiCMS also provides flexible rendering control. For example, in template tags, you can usearchiveDetailWhen getting document content, you can addrender=trueParameters to explicitly indicate that the system should render Markdown content as HTML, or throughrender=falseThe parameter skips rendering and directly displays the original Markdown text. This provides developers with more fine-grained control capabilities to meet different display requirements.

In short, AnQiCMS's Markdown editor provides a comprehensive and expressive creation platform for users with its deep support for basic Markdown syntax, GitHub Flavored Markdown, and extensions such as MathJax, Mermaid, etc.Whether it is daily articles, technical documents, or teaching content, it can be presented in a more efficient and intuitive way, greatly enhancing the quality of content and user experience.
