1.0.0-alpha.21

This is the twenty first in a series of (mostly) weekly alpha builds we'll be releasing as we work towards Ghost 1.0.0.

This release is strictly for development and testing only, and must not be used for production blogs

This alpha contains:

• ✍️ a return to a markdown-only editor albeit a fancier, shinier markdown editor with a toolbar, drag/drop uploads and all that good stuff (we're not dropping our mobiledoc editor completely but it was progressing too slowly to make the 1.0 cut 😞)
• 💥 a greatly improved importer - it's now more forgiving and will actually tell you when things aren't right!
• ✨ a brand new Markdown renderer, this fixes a whole heap of syntax bugs and improves Markdown support with full adherence to the CommonMark and Github Flavoured Markdown specs

---

⚠️ Please Note: The change in markdown renderer may result in a few minor breaking changes in HTML output. If you notice any major differences please let us know so that we can document them, thanks 🤗
