Automatically wrap headers with anchor tags

Automatically wrap headers with anchor tags

Can we use something like Redcarpet to automatically make headers in 18F pages linkable?

Maybe... Haven't played with it. Might be worth a shot. But, I'm not sure that it would be a built-in feature of Pages, but something we could add to the guides_template_18f gem or something.

Yeah, right after I posted I wondered if I had picked the wrong repo. :)

I have done this in JS before:

I know not all Markdown parsers automatically add ids for headings, but Kramdown does by default.
