A comprehensive guide to the Jadle markup language.
What is Jadle?
Jadle is a markup language that defines document layout and structure. It uses keywords and modifiers to create rich, interactive documents.
The language consists of two main components:
- Keywords: Define the type of content or structure (like titles, images, or bullet points)
- Modifiers: Adjust how elements appear or behave (like colors, sizes, or positions)
How Modifiers Work
In Jadle, modifiers must follow these rules:
- Each modifier must be indented with two spaces (a tab)
- Modifiers must appear on the line below their associated keyword
- Multiple modifiers can be applied to a single keyword
- All indented modifiers apply to the keyword above them
