Does anyone use Paragraph for blogs and/or newsletters? I am wondering what the options for including media in a post are. I’m sure images are no problem. What about embedding code (to read)? Or PDFs. Or code (to run—I am assuming this is a no go, but it doesn’t hurt to ask). I am thinking of using it to do deep dives on tech, especially architecture. Posts that may benefit from code snippets or PDF previews and whatnot.

Text & images are indeed no problem. 

We also support a range of embeds, like YouTube — let us know if there's something you'd like us to support.

We have an embed for code, though I'm not sure if it could be run directly from the web page.

I just noticed we don't support PDF's. For now, it's possible to make that work via a Google Drive link or similar approach. But this is great feedback, will take it back to the team.

Let us know any other feedback, or if we can help you get set-up on Paragraph!

Naming is so hard!

And writing isn't any easier!

Let us know if anything comes up. :)

Thanks! Right now I am trying to think of a name! Then I have to write the first (or even first two) article(s). I think it has all I need for the time being.

What you want to do sounds interesting, Vanessa...

Regarding your Q's definitely @stc is the one to ask. He has been publishing some great essays there, and I believe he has been using a range of mediums.

hey, I like to use paragraph, because it is very well integrated with the farcaster ecosystem. 

regarding to embeds - afaik there are not too many media types you can use directly, text highlighting of course works for code, but it is not really possible to embed realtime code in an article. for that matter, things like Observable or hashnode can work nicely, or for example you can embed iframes into Medium posts to display your custom code snippets

Oh yeah, I was going to read that. Let me have a look at what he’s done.
