Poor Man's Styleguide

A quick-and-dirty frontend styleguide, designed to be copied and pasted into your CMS.

It contains all common page elements, in HTML and (Github Flavored) Markdown formats.

If you'd like to contribute, make your changes to both the markdown and HTML files. If the elements can not be represented in markdown (like forms, for example), you can just add them to the final section of index.html.
