h1. Overview of DividendGrowth.ca
h2. Demos
h2. Introduction
- The site runs on the mature open source DokuWiki software. This means that it is free, and is supported by a very active community of users and developers.
- All content is created using plain text, with special markup to indicate styling, e.g. **bold**, //italic//, __underline__, etc. The full syntax is described here. There is no need to memorize the syntax, as there is a toolbar available when editing a page, with buttons for formatting like bold, italics, headings, bullets, numbered lists, etc.
- It will be very easy to import all your old content into the new site, and I have already done it for a small set of pages.
- The layout and look of the site, including colors and fonts, are controlled by a theme that is very easy to modify, completely independently of the site content.

- Six levels of headings
