writeonce/docs/examples/site/content.wo

-- content.wo — the tutorial chapters, seeded into the Chapter table on
-- first boot (types.wo's seed_if_empty). Model CONTENT, so it sits in
-- the root module beside types.wo: it inserts rows. Bodies are HTML fragments
-- BUILT with the wo-html dep — prose in el(), code samples through
-- code_block() which escapes them. Editing a chapter later (the admin
-- route) overwrites body/title in place; the WAL keeps the edit across
-- restarts, which is exactly chapter 6's lesson demonstrated by the
-- site that teaches it.
