+# Rendering Images Linked in Markdown Documents
+

+
+## Description
+
+Rendering images linked within markdown documents does not work as expected — we cannot render images if they have a relative path.
+As an example see the commit below:
+=> https://github.com/genenetwork/gn-docs/commit/783e7d20368e370fb497974f843f985b51606d00
+
+In that commit, we are forced to use the full github uri to get the images to load correctly when rendered via gn-guile. This, has two unfortunate consequences:
+
+* It makes editing more difficult, since the user has to remember to find and use the full github URL for their images.
+* It ties the data and code to github
+
+This needs to be fixed, such that any and all paths relative to the markdown file are resolved at render time automatically.

+# Rework Hard Dependence on Github
+

+## Description
+
+Currently, we have a hard-dependence on Github for our source repository — you can see this in lines 31, 41, 55 and 59 of the code linked below:
+
+=> https://git.genenetwork.org/gn-guile/tree/web/view/markdown.scm?id=0ebf6926db0c69e4c444a6f95907e0971ae9bf40
+
+The most likely reason is that the "edit online" functionality might not exist in a lot of other popular source forges.
+
+This is rendered moot, however, since we do provide a means to edit the data on Genenetwork itself. We might as well get rid of this option, and only allow the "edit online" feature on Genenetwork and stop relying on its presence in the forges we use.
