Github only supports Markdown not LaTeX for md files. #10

Github tries to render Logic Blocks Guide.md as Markdown -- it needs to have .tex flle extension.

I know. For the most part, it's a markdown file (specially after the rework i merged yesterday which removed a lot of ugly hacks) because it's easier to edit than latex, but i use some embedded latex (tikzpictures) for diagrams/graphs since there is no default markdown way to do that. I know mermaid exists, but afaik it doesn't give enough control over nodes/arrows' positions for the diagrams i make, which is why i use latex for that. The file is intended to be viewed in pdf after compiling it with pandoc, which renders everything properly

Assuming the diagrams won't change very much, you could pre-compile the the LaTeX Tikz diagrams to svg, uploading them into the images directory, and then include them as graphics.

That is if you wanted a pure Markdown file.
