What is Craft’s Markup Language?

Craft’s Markup Language (CML) allows users to write down information quickly, whilst allowing for simple customization.

Coloring Text

The one and only example (for now) to customize text is color coding. Utilizing term’s text color manipulation, you are able to color your text. All colors provided by the colors global can and only be used. To color text, use brackets surrounding the text that open and close similar to HTML tags.

For example:

Hello, my favorite holiday is [green]Christmas[/green].

• Caveats

  • You cannot color text that was already color. So for example [green][red]Hello[/red][/green] would be syntactically incorrect.

  • Each color tag must end with a closing tag. Failing to do so will have the rest of the text be colored. Even if you didn’t want to.

    Example: [green]Hello there
