Sometimes you need to support additional markups that work better for your team/project. The guides in this section will walk you through how to configure a Hugo site to support either rendering a whole file (for example, my-file.rst) or inline content wrapped in a shortcode.
Your site builds may take longer if you are rendering a lot of alternative markup content. This is due to Hugo needing to execute additional helper tools for parsing non-markdown content. Test this at scale before committing to use.
