# The Homebrewery *V3*Welcome traveler from an antique land. Please sit and tell us of what you have seen. The unheard of monsters, who slither and bite. Tell us of the wondrous items and and artifacts you have found, their mysteries yet to be unlocked. Of the vexing vocations and surprising skills you have seen.### Homebrew D&D made easyThe Homebrewery makes the creation and sharing of authentic looking Fifth-Edition homebrews easy. It uses [Markdown](https://help.github.com/articles/markdown-basics/) with a little CSS magic to make your brews come to life.**Try it!** Simply edit the text on the left and watch it *update live* on the right. Note that not every button is visible on this demo page. Click New {{fas,fa-plus-square}} in the navbar above to start brewing with all the features!### Editing and SharingWhen you create a new homebrew document ("brew"), your document will be given a *edit link* and a *share link*.The *edit link* is where you write your brew. If you edit a brew while logged in, you are added as one of the brew's authors, and no one else can edit that brew until you add them as a new author via the {{fa,fa-info-circle}} **Properties** tab. Brews without any author can still be edited by anyone with the *edit link*, so be careful about who you share it with if you prefer to work without an account.Anyone with the *share url* will be able to access a read-only version of your homebrew.{{note##### PDF CreationPDF Printing works best in Google Chrome. If you are having quality/consistency issues, try using Chrome to print instead.After clicking the "Print" item in the navbar a new page will open and a print dialog will pop-up.* Set the **Destination** to "Save as PDF"* Set **Paper Size** to "Letter"* If you are printing on A4 paper, make sure to have the **PRINT → {{far,fa-file}} A4 Pagesize** snippet in your brew* In **Options** make sure "Background Images" is selected.* Hit print and enjoy! You're done!If you want to save ink or have a monochrome printer, add the **PRINT → {{fas,fa-tint}} Ink Friendly** snippet to your brew!}} {position:absolute,bottom:20px,left:130px,width:220px}{{artist,bottom:160px,left:100px##### Homebrew Mug[naturalcrit](https://homebrew.naturalcrit.com)}}{{pageNumber 1}}{{footnote PART 1 | FANCINESS}}\column## V3 vs LegacyThe Homebrewery has two renderers: Legacy and V3. The V3 renderer is recommended for all users because it is more powerful, more customizable, and continues to receive new feature updates while Legacy does not. However Legacy mode will remain available for older brews and veteran users. At any time, any individual brew can be changed to your renderer of choice via the {{fa,fa-info-circle}} **Properties** tab on your brew. However, converting between Legacy and V3 may require heavily tweaking the document; while both renderers can use raw HTML, V3 prefers a streamlined curly bracket syntax that avoids the complex HTML structures required by Legacy.Scroll down to the next page for a brief summary of the changes and features available in V3!#### New Things All The Time!Check out the latest updates in the full changelog [here](/changelog).### Helping outLike this tool?

Hence, we have introduced `{{ }}` as a replacement for `<span></span>` and `<div></div>` for a cleaner custom formatting. Inline spans and block elements can be created and given ID's and Classes, as well as CSS properties, each of which are comma separated with no spaces. Use double quotes if a value requires spaces. Spans and Blocks start the same:#### SpanMy favorite author is {{pen,#author,color:orange,font-family:"trebuchet ms" Brandon Sanderson}}. The orange text has a class of `pen`, an id of `author`, is colored orange, and given a new font. The first space outside of quotes marks the beginning of the content.#### Block{{purple,#book,text-align:center,background:#aa88aa55My favorite book is Wheel of Time. This block has a class of `purple`, an id of `book`, and centered text with a colored background. The opening and closing brackets are on lines separate from the block contents.}}#### InjectionFor any element not inside a span or block, you can *inject* attributes using the same syntax but with single brackets in a single line immediately after the element.Inline elements like *italics* {color:#D35400} or images require the injection on the same line.Block elements like headers require the injection to start on the line immediately following.##### A Purple Header{color:purple,text-align:center}\* *this does not currently work for tables yet*### Vertical SpacingA blank line can be achieved with a run of one or more `:` alone on a line. More `:`'s will create more space.::Much nicer than `<br><br><br><br><br>`### Definition Lists**Example** :: V3 uses HTML *definition lists* to create "lists" with hanging indents.### Column BreaksColumn and page breaks with `\column` and `\page`.\column### TablesTables now allow column & row spanning between cells. This is included in some updated snippets, but a simplified example is given below.A cell can be spanned across columns by grouping multiple pipe `|` characters at the end of a cell.Row spanning is achieved by adding a `^` at the end of a cell just before the `|`. These can be combined to span a cell across both columns and rows. Cells must have the same colspan if they are to be rowspan'd.##### Example| Head A | Spanned Header ||| Head B | Head C | Head D ||:-------|:------:|:------:|| 1A | 1B | 1C || 2A ^| 2B | 2C || 3A ^| 3B 3C ||| 4A | 4B 4C^||| 5A ^| 5B | 5C || 6A | 6B ^| 6C |## ImagesImages must be hosted online somewhere, like [Imgur](https://www.imgur.com). You use the address to that image to reference it in your brew\*.Using *Curly Injection* you can assign an id, classes, or inline CSS properties to the Markdown image syntax. {width:100px,border:"2px solid",border-radius:10px}\* *When using Imgur-hosted images, use the "direct link", which can be found when you click into your image in the Imgur interface.*## SnippetsHomebrewery comes with a series of *code snippets* found at the top of the editor pane that make it easy to create brews as quickly as possible. Just set your cursor where you want the code to appear in the editor pane, choose a snippet, and make the adjustments you need.## Style Editor Panel{{fa,fa-paint-brush}} Usually overlooked or unused by some users, the **Style Editor** tab is located on the right side of the Snippet bar. This editor accepts CSS for styling without requiring `<style>` tags-- anything that would have gone inside style tags before can now be placed here, and snippets that insert CSS styles are now located on that tab.{{pageNumber 2}}{{footnote PART 2 | BORING STUFF}}Options
