You do that inside the SVG. Instead of having a yet another path or a group of paths, you just have that `use` element (which just references some other node). Basically, it lets you reuse something, but you can transform it and set some st

In most environments, writing something like `if (x = 5)` will generate a warning. E.g. if you use JSHint, you'd get: "Expected a conditional expression and instead saw an assignment." Nowadays, there usually isn't any b

Jekyll is a static website generator. It doesn't let you edit and publish content from a central interface. It's not a CMS.
