That is, they're great for writing a blog post, but not great for authoring more complex documents like dzslides/reveal.js with lots of control needed over HTML element classes, etc. For instance, dzslides will make any element with `class=\"incremental\"` show its children one at a time as the slide builds, but none of Markdown/Asciidoc/reStructuredText allow this level of control. And HTML is... well, if I wanted to write raw HTML then I wouldn't use Hugo. :)\r\n\r\nHugo does support the use of the more detail-oriented ACE and Amber formats, but only for templates. It would be great if I could write an ACE-formatted file to get more HTML precision than markdown-like formats allow but still benefit from Hugo shortcodes, e.g.:\r\n\r\n```ace\r\nsection\r\n  h1 Functional programming\r\n  ul.incremental\r\n    li Higher-order functions:\r\n\r\n    .centered\r\n      {{% figure src=\"...\" %}}\r\n\r\n    {{< highlight rust >}}\r\n    let f = |x| 2 * x;\r\n    {{< /highlight >}}\r\n```"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/spf13/hugo/issues/comments/137103259","html_url":"https://github.com/spf13/hugo/issues/1394#issuecomment-137103259","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/spf13/hugo/issues/1394","id":137103259,"user":{"login":"trombonehero","id":85833,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/85833?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero","html_url":"https://github.com/trombonehero","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/trombonehero/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-09-02T14:30:44Z","updated_at":"2015-09-02T14:30:44Z","body":"In fact, what I *really* want to get from ACE-based content files is the ability to use a `baseof.ace` file as my \"generic DZslides boilerplate\" and then write individual presentations/lectures like so:\r\n\r\n```ace\r\n= content main\r\n  section\r\n    /* ... */\r\n\r\n  section\r\n    /* ... */\r\n```"}}
