Part 17 — Styling Koenig editor content

Made {{content}} — the actual post body from Ghost's editor — look right.

Tailwind's reset strips default styling, so raw {{content}} looks unstyled.

Used @tailwindcss/typography (prose) as a base.
Styled Koenig-specific cards: .kg-bookmark-card, .kg-gallery-*, .kg-callout-*, wide/full images.

<div class="prose dark:prose-invert">
  {{content}}
</div>

Ghost's editor cards ship their own class names — style those or your galleries and bookmarks break. Easy to forget until a post looks wrong.
