## Creating Content ## Creating Content
Pico is a flat file CMS. This means there is no administration backend or database to deal with. You simply create `.md` files in the `content` folder and those files become your pages. For example, this file is called `index.md` and is shown as the main landing page. Pico is a flat file CMS. This means there is no administration backend or

When you install Pico, it comes with a `content-sample` folder. Inside this folder is a sample website that will display until you add your own content. You should create your own `content` folder in Pico's root directory and place your files there. No configuration is required, Pico will automatically use the `content` folder if it exists.

If you create a folder within the content folder (e.g. `content/sub`) and put an `index.md` inside it, you can access that folder at the URL `http://example.com/?sub`. If you want another page within the sub folder, simply create a text file with the corresponding name and you will be able to access it (e.g. `content/sub/page.md` is accessible from the URL `http://example.com/?sub/page`).

If a file cannot be found, the file `content/404.md` will be shown. You can add `404.md` files to any directory. So, for example, if you wanted to use a special error page for your blog, you could simply create `content/blog/404.md`. If a file cannot be found, the file `content/404.md` will be shown.

As a common practice, we recommend you to separate your contents and assets (like images, downloads, etc.). We even deny access to your `content` directory by default. If you want to use some assets (e.g. a image) in one of your content files, you should create an `assets` folder in Pico's root directory and upload your assets there. You can then access them in your markdown using <code>&#37;base_url&#37;/assets/</code> for example: <code>!\[Image Title\](&#37;base_url&#37;/assets/image.png)</code> As a common practice, we recommend you to separate your contents and assets
