Standard Markdown Still Works

You can still use:

Code Blocks

def greet
  puts "Liquid + Markdown = ❤️"
end

Custom Shortcodes (Your Existing Features)

Check out this Shopify app: Awesome App

Pretty cool, right? Liquid processes first, then Markdown, then your custom shortcodes!

## Key Changes Summary

1. **`raw_content`** - Stores the original Markdown (needed for `reading_time`)
2. **Liquid processing** - Happens **before** Markdown rendering
3. **`liquid_context`** - Provides all available variables to templates
4. **`reading_time`** - Calculates estimated reading time
5. **View updated** - Shows reading time in post meta
