Research Formatted Guide Pages Parse with Markdown

[abenipa3]

Overview

We need to research how to create formatted guide pages with Markdown so that the format could be reusable.

Action Items

Developer

• Research if Jekyll can use Markdown files as a collection to populate unique files from a template.
• Figure out how to use how to guide pages with sticky navigation. (Visit About Us page for reference.)
• Create a working HTML file demo that pulls MD file.

Design

• Once we have a feasibility plan for how to code it, consult with designers and product.
