I wrote in my own markdown flavor. It was based on ParseDown (PHP), and I was ended up extending it too much, to a point that I rolled it as a my own private library. I recently started to write more often, and having a consistent and suref

More often than not, base64 encoding has a negative net-impact. - base64 encoded strings are larger than the real file size. - It blocks browser rendering. Browsers can still render a page while it's downloading the fonts. Not while it
