Pico is a flat file CMS, this means there is no administration backend and database to deal with. You simply create .md files in the "content"
folder and that becomes a page.
If you created folder within the content folder (e.g. content/sub) and put an index.txt inside it, you can access that folder at the URL
- http://yousite.com/sub. If you want another page within the sub folder, simply create a text file with the corresponding name (e.g. content/sub/page.txt)

If you created folder within the content folder (e.g. content/sub) and put an index.md inside it, you can access that folder at the URL
+ http://yousite.com/sub. If you want another page within the sub folder, simply create a text file with the corresponding name (e.g. content/sub/page.md)
and will be able to access it from the URL http://yousite.com/sub/page.
Below we've shown some examples of content locations and their corresponing URL's:
| URL | ||
|---|---|---|
| content/index.txt | +content/index.md | / |
| content/sub.txt | +content/sub.md | /sub |
| content/sub/index.txt | +content/sub/index.md | /sub (same as above) |
| content/sub/page.txt | +content/sub/page.md | /sub/page |
| content/a/very/long/url.txt | +content/a/very/long/url.md | /a/very/long/url |
If a file cannot be found, the file content/404.txt will be shown.
If a file cannot be found, the file content/404.md will be shown.
Text files are marked up using Markdown.
