They bridge the gap between Markdown’s intentional simplicity and the richer, more structured HTML that publishing sites often need — figure captions, callout boxes, video embeds, custom alert blocks, styled pull quotes — without requiring authors to write raw HTML in their content files. Hugo ships with a small set of built-in shortcodes and provides a straightforward system for building your own.
