+## Pandoc static blog generator
+
+`pblog` comes packed with an incredible list of features:
+
+- 5-second configuration
+- Write all your posts and pages in Markdown
+- Valid RSS 2.0 feed (customized design too!)
+
+and it also *doesn't* ship with a lot of other features:
+
+- No advanced template layouts
+- No themes
+- No categories / tagging systems
+- No comments
+- No auto rebuilds for local testing
+
+But you can add these things yourself with a little know-how and patience! The goal of `pblog` is to remain as bare-bones as possible, so these "extras" are left out intentionally.
+
+## Live Demo
+
+This very website is a live demo! Mind blowing, right? Take a look at the [automated blog list](/blog) to see some blog posts.
+
+## Requirements

+2. Edit the variables at the top of the `pblog.sh` file

+
+## Base Settings
+
+#### Table of Contents
+
+By default `pblog` ships with TOC (Table of Contents) enabled. You can disable this on each individual page or post by editing the `TOC `variable in `pblog.sh` to `false`:
+
+```yaml
+TOC: false
+```
+
+#### Code Highlighting
+
+`pblog` uses the standard syntax highlighting provided with Pandoc. To disable this, set the `SYNTAX` variable to `false` in `pblog.sh`:
+
+```yaml
+SYNTAX: false
+```
+
+## Extras
+
+- Add all media files (images, videos, etc.) under the `media` folder
+- Customize the look of your blog by editing the included `style.css`
+- Looking for fancier *image manipulation*? Take a look at [this detailed post to get setup](/tweaks.html)
+
+You can share your **pblog** websites by emailing me at the address listed below and I'll add them here.
