text

Display either rendered markdown (GitHub Flavored Markdown) or raw text with no interpretation of markup.

Text blocks can be declared as named resources at the top level of a mod, or they can be declared as anonymous blocks inside a dashboard or container, or be re-used inside a dashboard or container by using a text with base = <mod>.text.<text_resource_name>.

Example Usage

text {
  width = 2
  value = <<-EOM
    # I am some markdown text.

    *I* respect ***markdown***.
  EOM
}
