Show HN: Turn a markdown document into an interactive tutorial

If the browsing user selects one of the samples on the site (which is verified easily with a quick hash on the client side), why on earth are you processing it again? Load shouldn&#x27;t be an issue here.<p>Honestly, users shouldn&#x27;t even be able to ruin your sales pipeline by interrupting your pitch. Why let us enter any markdown? It&#x27;s an example, you have a few representative samples, just take their output and hard code it and move on. As it stands now, I probably won&#x27;t remember to come back so see what this is all about, and waiting for an email isn&#x27;t really going to increase the odds that I come back.<p>Just some honest feedback for you. TL:DR: I was intrigued by the first page, put off by the unnecessary wait when you could&#x27;ve hard coded the response when a user chooses an existing sample.

I&#x27;m getting<p><pre><code> 500 error [root]$ :(){ :|:&amp; };: -bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable </code></pre> Hopefully that second line and bash don&#x27;t hint at a command execution vulnerability.

1. Clicked &quot;try it now&quot; for demo. 2. Went straight to a &quot;give us your email&quot; page. 3. Left and will never go back.

The real killer app would be the complete opposite, i.e. turning an interactive tutorial into a README file...

The HN title is somewhat of an understatement... This is really cool.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stacktile.io&#x2F;org&#x2F;ansible&#x2F;workflows&#x2F;670a1fda-3372-400d-99ea-d9e585ccdec5?activate_tour=1" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stacktile.io&#x2F;org&#x2F;ansible&#x2F;workflows&#x2F;670a1fda-3372-400...</a>

The usual scam, they ask for email and try to gather more leads.<p>``` Unfortunately, we are out of free slots at the moment. We&#x27;re Sorry! If you would like to be notified as soon as we have a free slot available, we invite you to sign up. ```<p>I&#x27;m really disappointed.

The markdown text input is borderline unreadable in Chrome on Windows 10: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;vTu2J34.png" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;vTu2J34.png</a>

Markdown or HTML?<p>From the example:<p><pre><code> 1. &lt;a href=&quot;https:&#x2F;&#x2F;app.storj.io&#x2F;#&#x2F;signup&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Sign up&lt;&#x2F;a&gt; for a Storj account.</code></pre>
