The guide walks contributors through creating a draft, adding a featured image (including AI generation), and using the editor's content blocks: text styling, headings, lists, blockquotes, separators, tables, code blocks, GitHub Gist embeds, inline and block math (LaTeX), images with captioning requirements for sourcing/licensing, video embeds (YouTube, Vimeo, DailyMotion), social embeds (tweets, Reddit), link embeds, and an auto-generated table of contents. It also explains how to request editorial help via comments or email. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
